With the SC, you may want to go back to the 3.15 final drive. The 3.45 seems to be too short with the SC in the car.

Agreed - 1st gear is barely usable as it is.

I live in Central London, with plenty of traffic so perhaps my drivetrain is going to have a different view on my theory above, once the Charger is fitted !
