Plastic or metal is really a personal preference, you can use either on your conversion. Some people say they like the plastic for less noise, but I have never thought my metal spurs were that loud anyway (proper gear mesh is key), so I just stick with them for durability and long wear. Still might try out a plastic spur one of these days just to see what the hype is about.
An 18T or 19T pinion should be a good starting point (pick up a few from the RCM store, they are strong and solid pinions), geared for right around 40mph top speed (many use this as the benchmark starting point). Check the motor and ESC temps during the first run to make sure things aren't too hot (temp gun is definitely a requirement), and you can make adjustments from there if needed.
