I think you could buy the PCB from RONIN.  Their first 68020/881 was a 1000
piggyback, and they therefore built an upgrade board for the 2000 that 
provides a 64 pin socket from the 86 pin 2000 socket.  I believe this board
did not also include the 32 bit memory hardware, so it is probably not too
expnsive.  Likewise, since their current design uses a single board in the
86 pin socket, they probably have a liquidation stock of the adapter board.
415-748-8560.

OK, don't waist.  Uh, you could always sell your 68020/881 and a meg of your
chips.  IF what you have is zips, you can solder 2->4m on the 2620.  Maybe
you will find some sucker who will pay you a lot for the 020/881.

Oh, I have no affiliation with Ronin.  I don't even own one of their boards.
