Rainmaker Valve ID

Gents, is this OEM or some kind of aftermarket?

Nevermind... I am a freaking idiot. It's right on it.

Congrats... you have 1 of maybe 200(?) Tornado valves made for the Rainmaker.

Very rare.

It was in a project RM I purchased on PbN 2 years ago. Came with a RM229 backblock, front block mount, palmer stabilizer, and a few other goodies. Happy accident I guess.

I am trying to get my other RM operational - but I misplaced some of the parts when I moved. I knew it looked a little more hi-flow lol. Need to find my oem parts now so I can save this for my mod'd RM build.

Should pair nicely with the akalmp sidewinder I just picked up too.

I think I have a couple of OE valve bodies still, if you need one... but no cupseals.

Okay, I'm going to check through everything tomorrow. If I cannot find anything, than I guess I'll have to arrange a purchase/trade. I believe I have everything in a small ziploc bag... now if I could only find that bag.

Wow, AKALMP! Those are rare for all BE.

Way too cool. Let me know if you are selling because I would love a Tornado valve in my Rainmaker!

I do also have a couple/few RM valves and valve stems if you need.

If I recall correctly, you have an aftermarket valve in yours already... it might be a homebrew setup, but it's definitely not stock. I think it will perform similarly to a Tornado valve.

Good to know! I haven't cracked it open to see what's in there. Shoots great either way.

I just want a Tornado valve for that extra swagggg on the forums

You do have a functional Rainmaker... isn't that enough? 😋
