they make 43t gears for it already. i was looking to instead jack the pinion size up considerably...like running a 44t spur or 43/30 or 36t pinion.. i think i'm gonna try this SDPI store and buy a few stainless steel gears and one aluminum just to see how they are. i've always wanted to gear my 8ight that high too, so my friend and i can burn up our esc's together. LOL!.
