Chaplin,
1st. is useless. You are in and out. That is if you really need to use it.
Second gear with a 3:54 is perfect. I may need a clutch replaced earlier than normal, but it is just right.

At 80 MPH, it is turning about 2900 RPM. I am very happy with the 5th gear with the 3:54 rear. I don't think I would like it as much with the 3:31.
I can go up hill in 5th, and accelarate easily without shifting down. I am not sure I could do that with 3:31. I also don't know that 3:31 would render the 1st. gear that much more usable.
