1) Mod1 and 32 pitch are different pitches. There are more teeth per inch in a 32p gear. The Kyosho spur is Mod1, so you need to get Mod1 pinions. Next time you are at your LHS, put a 32p and Mod1 side by side and you can tell the difference right away. If they carry Traxxas parts, put a Revo spur (Mod1) and Jato spur (32p) side by side.

2) As long as you have the discharge current rating you need, you can use any lipo cell you want really. It usually comes down to what physically fits. The 8Ah packs are made with 4Ah cells in 2p config. So, a 4s 10Ah pack only has 4 cells, while the 4s2p 8Ah pack has 8 cells, which is probably why the 8Ah packs cost more.
