hmm,
my buddy used to run a losi conversion on his 8t but he used the 45t metal spur that the kits used to come with. not sure if they still do but his worked. one thing i was gonna tell you though. dont use that little plastic half-moon thing that is designed to rest under the rear of your motor. when your chassis flexes that pushes up against your motor and will either cause your shaft to break, bearing to go bad, etc.

just ignore all that losi stuff and put your tekno together when you get it. and if you have any bild questions when it arrives you can pm me directly or post obviously. but that losi conversion is a waste of time like you say
