Yeah, I knew the spur gets pretty close, but wasn't sure if that spur spacer piece you got as part of the conversion kit added enough space to allow a little more clearance for larger spurs.

Since you're still using the two-speed tranny, you could gear up by simply getting a larger pinion. The thing is, to get the pinion to physically reach the spur with that mount, the pinion will probably need to be big.

Don't forget, there are three 2nd gear options, close, normal, and wide ratios, which you can use to get the gearing you want.
