1.No simple guide, you'll just to bump the frequency and the voltage slowly until you hit a stable overclock you're satisfied with.
2.Don't know, I'd say 4.0Ghz is the bare minimum you can hit seeing that it's the turbo frequency. But after that it's anyones guess, it depends how good of a CPU you got.
3.If you attempt to go to 5Ghz one thing is adequate cooling which you have with the X60 and the other is to make sure you give the CPU enough voltage. Be smart and don't undervolt it, don't be stupid and overvolt it. Take it in small steps.
