I paid the dealer to pin crank, it is harder than than you think.
Installed Callaway kit MP112, no problem, it was fun.
Went back to dealer for alignment, you now have an extra 100 lbs on front end and removal of steering rack miss aligns stuff.
I did it for bragging rights

I had a local shop install a couple pulley's and pin the crank for a 8 rib conversion and just ran my 6 rib belt till I got home. Installed the rest in the garage (brackets, intercooler, piping, headunit, ect) and was a breeze. I didnt feel like fooling around with the pinning. You can really booger up the crank snout and harmonic balancer if it starts walking on ya. Just a heads up.

Complete ProCharger install, along with headers, Corsa exhaust, Meziere electric water pump, Ron Davis radiator. LPE oil cooler, Typhoon aluminum intake, Marren 60# injectors, Z06 brake conversion, Z51 sways, bla, bla, bla. All in my garage, solo. It's nutz & boltz. Not rocket surgery or brain science!
