Re: "Would it be possible to put some cache chips on a Celeron PPGA SLOTKET adapter and have them run as an L3 cache (like the K6-III) and would this be of any benefit?"

The short answer is no.
The long answer is maybe, however the Celeron's L2 cache controller is in use controlling the on die L2 so the only way to do it would be with more logic on the slot card or a new chipset supporting L3 and moving the srams to the MB. Either way it's not likely to happen.
