Er.. please don't.

You need a firearms license, safe storage (that meets the guidelines). You also need a letter from a club stating that they will allow you to use the paintball marker at their field. You are then only allowed to transport the marker to or from a licensed field as you can only use them at a licensed field.

Lastly, if you used your marker on any unsuspecting member of the public, you would have the whole paintball community kicking in your door aswell as the police charging you for firearms offences. Charges such as "going armed with intent to cause fear", "discharging a firearm in public" and "discharging a firearm with intent to injure" would certainly harm your future somewhat.

Edit: please close this thread as it is pointless and stupid.

Bubbe, you have spoilt all the fun.....but your correct!

Any thing like these are considered weapons and if used wrongly or iresponsibly then id hope you would get charged as such. Throwing and egg and shooting a gun are very different things.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
