Sheesh, Fred, are you everywhere? :D
Back again, and belated Merry Christmas to all, and preemptive happy New year!
Josh, ^^ I'd be interested to learn more about that marker.
To the previously unknown details about the mini,...
It's this.
The profile of the Short and Snappy (SAS) is identical to the standard Ressie-style plates, i.e., the change-angle hump to ensure full pull, but is different in that it has a timing rod...
Agreed on the hopeful details.
Also, it occurs to me that there may well be good reason to open up the inlet side, simply because it allows for a smaller window of lift, true?
Just pulled a...
Eh? What's this?

Go on . . . .
Oh, this is kid in a candy store stuff.
And may I say for the record that the world would be a better place if all conversations were this information-dense.
Now, to an earlier question of...
Yes! More, please.
Josh,
To answer about the bolt, I'm using an AKA Lightning, but have had good results with Simon's bolt, and with a custom bolt I had made up for this build.
Am also wondering if you could...
Interesting.
Will be looking forward to learning what the increased input pressure does for your efficiency.
Back again.
Josh, to answer some of your thoughts/points, questions:
Yes, the marker hisses momentarily on gassing, or else fires a half shot if the EZ ASA is slammed home. Then it stays...
Agreed. This is why I tell people to come here.
Thanks again, all. Will chew all of this over and bring more questions.
In meantime, I'll also post back with some spring and valve specs for...
I too will mess about with my Ressie, as it is nowhere near as efficient. Maybe 1500 on the best of days, and I'm not even sure about that.
I'll express tentative early skepticism, as it seems...
I don't think that's off-topic in the slightest.
Indeed, that puts a very interesting color on the matter. I'd be very interested to learn what you find in testing.
Thank you!
To some of your points, I will be area matching, but am not sure what you mean by 'throttling.' Can you say more about that?
Also, given that the stock inlet port is kind of...
Almost forgot to ask/clarify:
It may not matter, but in theory, is it better to have one larger hole going from the VASA to the body, or two smaller holes (creating a manifold)?
And if a...
Hammer spring is matched to the valve spring. So both are super light.
No idea of pressure, but for this next build I'll probably gauge it.
Haven't played around with it until now, so this is...
That makes two of us! :D
Actually, the CCM valve uses a fairly small area, buna o-ring sealing face. I don't think that it does, or even can, close quickly without a lot of pressure behind it.
There's a pic of it here:

Standard 285-ish range.
Here's the breakdown:

Good to know, thank you!
Yes, I have, and more than once.
First time I thought it was a fluke. Filled to 4000 and shot three bags and change.
Second time I got a good fill, and shot four bags.
And it consistently...
Thank you, sir!
Just to be clear, when you say that you don't know that the inlet port is restrictive, are you saying that, mathematically, it may not actually be an issue, or.....?
Thanks...
All,
Am trying to replicate the performance of one autococker in another, and would like to get some engineering eyes on the problem.
For reference, I have an ID (2k-based) mini fighter that...
