That's how I do it for my conversions (in addition to the GURPS Repository someone linked earlier, I am also running a GURPS campaign set in a Pathfinder world), except that I leave Strength as it is. And I usually pare high Constitution modifiers down to HT 12 or 23 or so - at some point, I want the fight to stop with all but the toughest enemies, and extremely high HT causes fights to drag on and on...
