This is good that you are asking.  Years ago, I was going to get the SS
servo.  But Victoria British offered a servo that came with an installation
kit and even then was less than the SS one.  So I got the VB one.  I later
learned that the "kit" was useless, and that the VB ratio was 1.9:1 and the
SS one was 2.3:1.  The mounting of the SS one matched the stock unit, but
the VB one did not.  For what it's worth, I wrote to Girling.  They wrote
back and gave me a number for what they considered to be the correct
servo.  It was 3:1 and matched what came on Jaguars.
