Yes,
Are you adding a CPU board or will you switch CPU:s?
You need clock board 501-5365 to provide a 5x (5x84=400MHz) frequency.
Update to latest prom patch before installing them.
If you have cpu-board 501-2976 only 2MB cache will be used (X2600A),
if you have X2601A or X2602A cpu-boards all 8MB will be seen.
If you have older clock board than 501-5365 the cpu:s will be recognized
as 336MHz I believe.
