I'm sure it will have an effect, but I can't say for sure how much of an effect. If you're going to replace the parts, I'd suggest the CRC precision delrin unit. Less friction, no slop, and just cool looking. It's CRC 4278, here's a picture of it on Stormer's: CLICK HERE
$11.95 for the 1 set of platic and one ball. You only need one set for a link car. I'm put two sets on the t-bar in my FF07, and I have another one on the way for my GenX. You'll trim two of the ears off it to fit the football on your Knife.

IRS sells some nice pivot balls, aluminum with a hard-coat anodize and teflon impregnated. Part# is IRS375. $9.95 for a pair, I would think one of those would last a season or two in a Knife or GenX.

The motor plate is repositioned on the graphite pieces to change the weight balance of the pod. The hub and cone are needed to keep the rear width legal.

I can let you know my experience with the 12R5 as a newb to 1/12th scale 
I just started racing 1/12th this season (indoor carpet) with the 12R5. I bought it because I liked the idea of the unique dampener on the pod, because it was supported by my local hobby shop and because it was very competitively priced.
I was VERY happy with how it went together and it was really easy to drive right out of the box with the kit setup! In fact I finished 5th in the Stock A in the first weekend of our Western Canadian series in the fall having only raced one 8 minute heat prior to that weekend!
All-in-all I'm really pleased with it and would highly recommend it based on my experience.
Cheers,
Mike
