I'm guessing he didn't since he's bad mouthed it. For what reason I'm not sure. Better times would be had.

Agreed. The larger final drive doesn't add HP/TQ, but it broadens the fine line between bogging or spinning in first gear/second gear. That helps get the power to the ground easier and helps recovery when you do cross the line into spinning. Much like larger brakes don't stop the tire any faster, they just broaden the line between lock up and slowing down... Modulation...
Although with a 3L and supercharged (with a host of other mods) there just isn't enough "TQ-to-gear-to-tire" ratio available in 2nd or 3rd, even with the Zetec final drive pushing 245's around.
