Caution should be urged here. The last time I looked it was a federal crime 
to modify an *imported weapon* that came into the country after 1989(?) so 
that it could hold more ammo than it could when it came into the country.

Too my knowledge, no such kit exists. There are, however, "goose neck" 
magazines that effectively do the same thing, but you should heed the 
caution abovebefore using them.
There are versions of the SKS that are around the came from the factory 
designed to accept the AK version magazines. These are legal, but you won't 
find them for $100! When I bought mine, it set me back about $350.
