If the 3.7 is the "baseline" or 1.0, then the 3.45 would be 3.45 / 3.7 = .93
output.  The standard OD is about .82 so the 3.45 would be the equivalent of
"half an overdrive", right?  A friend of mine has a 3.45 and is considering
an A-type OD so he would end up with .93 x .82 = .76.  That's quite a
reduction.  Great for the open road but probably not for racing.

NO, but a 3.45 gear in the diff does.
