What do you guys want to see in the RM info thread?
-I'd like to see some info on what type of delrin bolt can be used. Maybe one that flows well. The stock one is pretty bad.
-Also valve porting, and body porting.
-Ram replacement specs and options (think I found a clippard ram that works and is $52 shipped).
-Would also be nice to see someone make solenoid mount again.
-Board options that are capable of running the two different types of solenoids

Delrin bolt - custom required. Nothing "off the shelf" fits.
Board options - anything that has adjustable dwell up to 55ms.
Noid mounts - custom required. Maybe Doc?
Porting - you'll need a custom valve. Body already has pretty big ports. Truthfully, you're handicapped by the tiny valve chamber volume, one more reason to gut and volumize the stock regs.
My only question is what exactly are the Marty mods and how are they done? I've never owned a rainmaker, but I've always heard of the Marty mods and never really heard how to do them.

Any info on the feedneck? On how to secure it properly or if there are any replacement options outside of making it myself.
Epoxy. That's it, basically.
What I've done in the past is cut the neck down, just under where it flares out to fit a hopper, and install a Lapco universal clamping feedneck. Works pretty good.
Hi Jordan i still can’t find the 2 longer Allen screws that hold on the upper portion of the feed neck on.The last shop I was at I found some that are very close but would not thread in.They had 5 diff ones that looked exact but the thread pattern must be diff.

Pretty sure they're 5-40 thread. What did you try? Never got an answer last time.
Only having a phone to post is a handicap, sometimes.
Thanks for the write up, I just overpaid for a Rainmaker a few days ago and was scouring forums for the mods to the carrier and hammer. Please do continue with the explanation of the set screw installation. Info and pics of the best ways to attach a front block to clean up the front/convert to mech would be much appreciated. Im sure I can machine something that works but references are nice to have.

I'm happy to hear it's come in handy already. 🙂 When I have a moment I'll see what I can come up with for the setscrew portion of the mods.
However...
The RM in my possession is not mine - I was asked to do the anti-friction mods to the internals and get it running, nothing else.
I have no plans on will doing any writeups on mech conversions but I'm always available to answer any questions.
Hey just checked my old messages and you where thinking it might have been a 6-40 so that’s what I tried.They are a little to fat and won’t thread in.I have spares of the orginal screws but would like to order more.You are definitely right I didn’t message you back I appologize for that.Will try the 5-40 when go to local shop.
Thanks again for going out of your way to post all the info on here. Should help a handful people out getting these things back on the field. It Be awesome to hear a whole team of people running these things. .
Hey Jordan the socket head screw i ordered was a 5-40 1 1/4.I had to trim the length just a little bit but they will work.I would prob say they are a online order screw only haha.Thanks again for the help.
