For a while now I've been working on a project to install a low power 2 metre transverter inside an Elecraft K2

Interesting project. One thing seems a little odd. You use an attenuator to reduce the level of the 28MHz signal as it would be too much for the transverter to handle. You then say you then need to amplify the transverter output because it only puts out 1mW but you wanted 100mW.
It makes me think you could simplify things if you used a different transverter that would give you the higher output since you are only talking 100mW. It could let you eliminate the 28MHz attenuator, the 1mW to 100mw amp after the transverter, or possibly both.
