Not sure if you've seen the info on my e-bolt project, but I wanted to give you all the info and ask a few questions. |

You're suggesting the standard Palmer's instead of the fatty? What reasoning is it behind this. I can see the usefullness, but aren't the Fatty's more consistant at lower presures?

The Fatty's have a wider ratio 92:1 vs 70:1 for the Stab for regulating the air. The Fattys also have a little better performance concerning the recharge rate.

That's what I was thinking. Do any of you know of any other Stabilizers that would be comparable to this one, or better? |

The fatty isnt high enough pressure. Even for the LPK.

With the E-Bolt ram it is. Haven't I said it enough by now for you to see it around the forum: If you don't need the blow back to cock the hammer, you do not have to maintain 400 psi to operate the 98. Failure to cock is the problem if you try to run too low pressures. There is no "cocking" required with a electro-pneumatically operated ram. My 98C with the E-Bolt and LPK and the Hammerhead barrel (Nelson Hemorrhage paint) is giving me 275 fps at only 140 psi. Even with barrels that take a lot of gas, such as my Apex, I am still operating at on 240 psi...all well within the range of the Palmer Fatty. Deadeye, there is nothing out there that is better than the Palmer...there is cheaper, yes...more expensive, yes...better, no! Edited by Bruce A. Frank - 14 July 2006 at 9:07pm |

That was the sort of definitive answer I was looking for. The Fatty it is then. Now, what about the centerfeed... Anyone got any advice? |

Next question. I got the Tippmann ASA/reg today (thanks Bruce), but how do you mount the thing? It looks like a wearver mount... |

Can't tell you the brand, but in looking through the drop forwards at a paintball store there were several that fit. There were also adapters that let it fit on any drop forward. It wasn't unique. |

It has been a while since I used that thing. As I think about it, there may be a part that came with it. Let me look a bit. HOLD ON: I found the adapter that bolted the ASA to the bottom of the grip. This will allow the ASA to fit any drop forward that accepts a Tippmann ASA (standard or E-Bolt one). I'll drop it in the mail today. Sorry that I overlooked the part when I sent the ASA.

Unless you are or know a professional machinist, I'd recommend you let Rufus Dawg do the mod for you. I had a Friend of mine who builds and repairs machinery for a living do mine and I experienced some major problem afterwords. It took a lot of fine sanding on the lip and bore of the centerfeed hole to set things right. |

One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back.

Yeh, i'm pretty good with a drill and a dremil, so i'll prolly do it myself. I just don't have the time to send it off at this point to have it drilled.
