well, 100 mhz is allot more than 66 mhz, it would be like trying to run that 300 mhz processor at 450, not likely to work. your ram may be fast enough, but the other chips on the board, like the ones that interface the ram to the processor, won't be. it probably won't work at all (i'd be amazed if it even booted, or even managed a sad mac). if it did work, yes, you would probably fry the bus electronics as they'd be dissipating allot more power, in cmos electronics (which is basically what all modern computer electronics are) power dissipation is proportional to frequency, so if it did work the chips would have to dissipate 50% more power. best not to try it, unless you like large clouds of smoke. sorry.
