If you can get your hands on it, Stuffit Deluxe (and maybe some of the Share
Ware versions) can perform this job for you.  They have a translator that does 
just what you ask.  It can also decompress arc tar and can convert unix 
text to mac.  You can get it bundled with SpaceSaver from Mac Zone.  I enjoy
it.

Good luck
