Mike made a custom (maybe Delrin IDK) spur that is 32p and 52T.

A couple other notes about the kit:

Mike used only existing holes in the chassis.

The battery tray/ESC mount is one piece and instead of self-tapping the screws to hold it down, Mike used brass inserts.

The motor mount is a little different. It is designed like the old emaxx mount where there is only a screw hole in the bottom, but there is a radial slot on top. So, adjustment is easier. However, instead of the bottom screw holding the motor to the mount, the screw simply holds a bushing to the motor, which makes motor replacement and adjustment easier. Being skeptical, I called Mike about this and he assured me this design works well as it takes a LOT of force to strip the threads. The motor's vertical forces are still being supported by two screws.
