Recessed Can Lights - Electrical

hey guys...

i have a 2 story home that im looking to remodel a little.

i have a dinky flourscent fixture in the kitchen and would like to replace it with like 4-6 or so 6" recessed light cans. the home is 2 story so i know i will not have access above the ceiling so it seems i will nee to use the Remodel style type cans.

does anyone have any pointers or experience in installing these types of lights. it seem fairly clear cut hookup wise. i just may have to drill through some joists in order to place the cans where i want them etc.

i think one of my main concerns is how many lights can i safely put on that one line. the existing fixture only runs two 4ft flourescent bulbs. i guess i wont really know until i can determine what guage wire is used on that existing fixture....
