Here's the article on k-modding from SSCentral. http://www.sscentral.org/mods/kmod.html
I'm not aware of any videos yet however.
In response to part of the article: Using a clamp to help close the PC case is best, but I managed to get by without it. I used my hand to clamp it as far as I could closed, then got the screws in. Not as ideal, but it worked for me. (Just be really careful not to damage any of the threads; they're plastic!)
If you're having trouble opening the blaster, check out the article on it on SSC or ask here. The pump and nozzle caps should be removed before the screws, so that you can keep the screws in the upper half of the casing so they don't get lost or mixed up.

Re: Help with k-modding
One thing is for sure: Start with the nozzle cap and pump cap. If you can't remove those, than you can't K-mod anything.
If you're lucky, you can pop the nozzle cap right off, and the pump cap can be either unscrewed or popped off, glue or no glue. If the nozzle cap is glued, pry at it for a while, and if it won't come off (or plastic is too brittle) than take a razor blade and cut it right along the casing seam. Then you will still have to pry off the half of the nozzle cover that is covering the screw hole. Once that is done, unscrew everything and open 'er up. I'll be doing this to a CPS 1000 in two weeks, hopefully.

Re: Help with k-modding
There's 3 cases of nozzle/pump caps and several ways to deal with them.
1. Threaded: These are rare but super-convenient; simply unscrew.
2. Free-snap: Can be pried off. Use pliers and/or a pair of good flathead screwdrivers, and use 2 at a time if you can, each on opposite sides, and push upwards.
3. Glued: You can tell if its glued if it won't rotate, although that's not necessarily an indicator that its glued. That said, it's still possible to pry these off as you would snap caps, but you may need to split them too. (Lots of tools can help you here: hacksaws, dremel, knife/blade, sharp flathead screwdriver + hammer, etc.)

Re: Help with k-modding
in the scc article it says to get a clamp to hold the pc while you put on the baloons. I have always used my feet to hold the pc, and my hands to put on the ballons, and it always works. I reccomend it, but clamps are good too. :p

Re: Help with k-modding
I don't have table clamps, so I had no choice but to find other ways to hold the PC.
