Kevin,

Why don't you ask your client this: How would you feel if your site
appeared within another sites design with their logo and slogan above
your own?

I would try to convince him that you can achieve better results with a
small page with information about why the linked site is relevant, a
small screen shot of what the site looks like and a link to open a new
browser window. With the exception of the link in a new window this
can all be done with standards in mind and the link is a lot less evil
than some frames. Stress that after they close the newly opened window
his site will be sitting there behind ;-)
