I think you may be out of luck there.
All of the interlock switches I have seen will only work with conventional style breakers, like SDQ, Siemens, CH, etc. I don’t know how they could even make one for the old ITE Pushmatic Bulldogs given the design.
I think your choices might be limited to a separate manual transfer switch, a GenTran style generator panel, adding a subpanel or just changing out the old Pushmatic panel to one that an Interlock switch will fit.
