A PX-fork in an old large frame is just wrong. It's going to sit too high, and you wont be able to fit the front mudguard properly.
The way to go is a PK XL2 fork. There are small variations on these, so have a look at

to fint the correct one.

You're also gonna need to cut/weld new steering stops, and maybe a fork lock slot.
Just curious, what does he need the steering stops for? I'd rather say, you need to fix a slot for the lock, or you wont be able to lock it. And if you like steering stops weld them on there, but they are not needed.
With the PK (XL2) fork you'll still have trouble fitting the mudguard properly, but now its doable.
Then again, why do you want to fit a different fork? If it is because you want to add a disc brake, then I understand. If not, why not just do it right and get a super-fork?
