You have 2 receivers with different IF's (frequency), if you choose a design ensure it can incorporate switched IF frequency. You may be able to get some ideas from the Eddystone receivers that had product mixers fitted, the EA12 for instance , 940 , 840.

There used to be a kit sold in the states for the collins R390A which was quite succesful , this was based on modern components and had good reviews.
