8BitMonk:

I've updated my post on the Hyperspin board with a sample of a 36v power supply. It's noticeably better than the 20v or 24v and by far my favorite. I would say no to using a 20v power supply, 24v is passable and 36v is preferable.

The 36v supplies I got were the Kodak ones on referred to on ebay (url earlier in thread) and were only about $10 apiece.

Why does the documentation say 'peak current of 5amps'?

Because the 5 amps is only required in short 40 millisecond bursts, so there is no need for a supply which has a continuous rating of 5 amps. A peak rating of 5 amps is sufficient.

Did we ever get an asnwer on what is needed if you are starting from zero?  Gun Kit, recoil kit, and new housing?

I answered it earlier in the thread after I emailed Andy. The shells are just that. No trigger, side button, screws, etc. So you need the full gun kit as well as the new shells and recoil kit.

 I'm assuming each solenoid will need it's own power supply, right?
