I just quickly went through the two pinouts and a lot of the pins on the
surface seem to be the same, the keyboard & z80 pins can probably just
be ignored.

But I think the 2mhz mode would require quite a large change to the c64
motherboard. I don't think I've seen an 8566 datasheet, so you may have
to reverse engineer the c64 & c128 motherboard to figure out how to
adapt it.
