 I have been told that the Hillman Hunter gearox is the same casing and internal workings as the the Rapier H120 gearbox.
From the outside of the gearbox it does look the same but it does have different ratio's. Has anyone fitted the Hunter gearbox and what where the ratio's like ?
......H120/Jensen...........Hunter.............Hunter GB + JH Diff
Diff..JH 3.73...............HH 3.89
1st---11.6 to 1 (3.11)-----13.04 to 1 (3.35)----12.49
2nd---7.42 to 1 (1.99)-----8.32 to 1 (2.13)----7.98
3rd---4.81 to 1 (1.29)-----5.41 to 1 (1.39)----5.21
4th---3.73 to 1 (1.00)-----3.89 to 1 (1.00)----3.73

Top / 4th is obviously the same, all the other gear are lower, would it make that much difference? Comments welcome.
