I am in the process of retrofitting the exact same Mill with Linuxcnc (Pathpilot)! I joined this forum looking for tips on the Toolchanger.
We used wantai DQ860 stepper drivers hooked up to a Wyse thinclient PC running Pathpilot with a Mesa drivercard.
We changed the 180V DC spindle with an 1KW AC servo.
Hope this gave you some pointer on where to start.
