I have a 350MHZ G3 B&W.  I wanted to upgrade the processor, any idea
of the fastest processor I can go with?  I just put an 80 GB hard

Sonnet made a 1Ghz G4 upgrade.  Unfortunately, it drops the bus speed
from 100Mhz to 66Mhz due to a bug in the chipset.  These arent
available new tho.

Powerlogix has the G3/1Ghz chip.  These are available new for $109.
No Altivec, so if you need it the G4 would be the one to go with.

Careful.  You can spend more on upgrades than a newer G4 system can be
had for.
