I only have one image of her but it does let me know some things needed for the build:

Twin miniguns in the M28 turret (configuration E) along with the M35 20mm gun under the port inner pylon (G).

The question is what to hang under the starboard inner pylon?

XM-158A1 on the three remaining pylons?

XM-159 on the inner starboard pylon and XM-158A1 on the outer pylons?

Well, I am leaning towards this configuration! Lots of lead and rockets for nearby destruction (too heavy for a long missio):

Instrument panel change to implement and not included in any kit.

AH-1G 68-17107 "Lady Godiva" back seat console showing the 20mm Control Panel in front of the cyclic. In addition to 20mm major component installations, Sandy McLeod notes that they also had to attach a strap next to the front seater’s canopy handle. Vibration on that 20mm side of the aircraft when firing would cause the handle to shake loose and possibly canopy would open during firing run. Thus during missions would have to put strap over the handle.
