Nice!

I would start with the 14t pinion. Turn the timing down and punch control up on the ESC just to start off conservatively. If everything works well for the first few runs make whatever tweaks you want.

Yes the Novak pinions are fine with metal spur gears. Though if you decide to go plastic there's a new option from Losi - LOSA3560, LOSA3561 and LOSA3562. I've been running my plastic one for about a year. My motor came loose when I cased a jump last week and the teeth went a little flat. I was running the 46t kyosho. I just ordered the 45t Losi to replace it. I'll report after some use how it's doing.
