Mountain man
Welcome to the small but growing Hunter Family. I have had Hunter #009 on the road since September. I have had it at two track events at the Gainesville test track(1.0 to 1.6 mile depending on layout road course) I have a 5.0 Mountaineer motor with a hotter cam, headers and a holley 600 on an edelbrock manifold. My suspension is a 1985 C4 vette with the Dana 36 with really crappy 2.73 rear gears. I am running 17" Kumho street tires. At the last event I was running about 4 seconds behind a 2001 Z06 Vette with R compound tires and a Superformance with 17" Kumho R compound tires and a very hot 427. Engineer Ed was there with his FFR running a 347 and 3.73 rear gears. He wa running about 2 seconds ahead of me. The car is very smooth and I think if I went with 3.55 or 3.73 rear gears I could really give Ed a run for his money.

I built my car over 18 months buying things as I needed them or getting soem bargins on this forum and Cobra forum.

good luck
