That chip looks interesting.
I was going to suggest using a TDA7000 with a 10.7MHz IF.
It's a common chip that you can buy for a couple of dollars. It needs a few extra external components but it's easy to set up.
You can even buy a kit from jaycar which has everything you need ready to go, all you need to do is change the tuning coil for the lower 10.7MHz IF.

Interfacing it into the radio is not particularly hard either. Again, you'll still need the radio circuit diagram.
The FM demod board is constantly running and the IF is taken from the 10.7MHz IF buffer amp output.
If you want FM, then just switch the audio amp's input from the AM/SSB detector to the FM board.

For transmit mod, the radio is put into AM mode. The audio removed from the high level modulator and it's held ON.
The audio drive is then applied to the VCO in the PLL loop. Picking the right place and method to inject the audio without effecting the VCO will take a little bit of consideration.

About 10 years ago i ran a packet setup on UHF CB on CH23 for a year, it was used all the time i was the only node but still it was in use all the time for chatting and for its BBS.

Had fun till the RIs got too close as a few people got upset, and dobbed me in and the thing is they never used ch23 as they were repeater queens and never changed channels.

i know this is a old post but as a operator/owner of the now ex Christchurch nz link i have a few words
first the link was great...in Christchurch at the time ..well before the quakes hit in 2010 it was a blast to use.....unfortunately the powers that be here in nz stopped it stone cold in its tracks when another operator in the north island got raided for having a linked station using this system that "packet cb""has.
second in the recent rule changes made in nz to the uhf cb band a few submissions went in asking for the system of linking via the internet be allowed....as usual the "powers that be"  stopped that in its tracks with some cr*p that it defeats the "use" of uhf cb...what a pack of c**ks!...
anyway i now live a lot father north of Christchurch now and things have changed here in nz as of recent so much so that there is only two radio inspectors for the north  island and one for the south island...in the area i now live there is only 3 operators for about 100kms and we all agree that time to put another link up..."packet cb" has been running the system from his site for q number of years now and i still login via the net to the links to talk all over the world to operators in other countries .....to note my neighbors brother is the north island radio inspector..and he sits out side my place (i live on a hill) to monitor for illegal fm radio station pirates when he is in town....fi**en funny as!  ;)

as a foot note i know you guys have issues on your uhf cb radio repeaters over there (been reading up on the ch7 saga)...in Christchurch (ch1-31)its run by a neo-nazi wannabe racist f**kwit and the so called nsdap skinhead dicks....if they only knew the "owner" known sex offender he would be in their dream of a death camp!

[quote]Now for the hardest part: finding someone to talk to.[/quote]
agreed...fm mainly used in the euro zone and South America...i myself have only heard a handful of operators use fm in the southern hemisphere but do agree its a mode that should be legal for cb bands in nz and australia ....the fm repeaters(10m) in Australia can be often triggered from here in new zealand when skip is in..a good guide to how propagation is going nz-aus ;)

see what you have in the cupboard and pm me with what you have.
we are also after parts rigs so again pm me and we can come to a deal.
the shop is at http://www.yeticomnz.com
some of the rigs are on our youtube site here http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY43qsuHQuhrC_yJCPFXdcw?feature=mhee you may be lucky and hear your own voice on the channel!
thanks in advance for viewing...mike
