I put a TVS2300 on my L99 two years ago - took a week off between Christmas and New Years and did it. It was a blast, but really simple compared to all the prep work that you are doing. Also we only went for 6.5 lbs of boost so didn't have to pin the crank. Never really figured out what all would need to be done to pin it, so it was very interesting to see you pin yours.

Thanks again for your really helpful build thread

It took about 10 minutes to pin the crank. If you already have the pulley on, then the maggie kit comes with a new GM Crankshaft bolt!

Its about $90 for the tools and bolt shipped so its not too terrible. I just needed one pin (per ADM) where the Maggie says 2. Thus the two 'holes' in the guide.

The drill and reamer work REALLY well and with the air drill, cut almost like butter ;o). Was much easier than I thought and worked out well...
