Can anyone advise on the suitability of a second hand kite that I am looking at off a SO37. Will this be able to be sensibly rigged on a 34.2 size is quoted Leech / luff 13.44 m, foot 6.82 m , measured from extremity of each ring. Please excuse my ignorance, I have only recently purchased and am still getting my head around the beast!

You may have to have it cut down a bit. Doing conversions to metric it appears that the SO37 is about a meter taller in the mast, ie 44.79' vs 41.67 for your rig, and the J value, ie bow to mast is 12.53 vs 11 for your rig, or about half a Meter different.
While it may work, you may get overpowered quickly.
