I also found some 66T spurs but they hold a lot less balls and would still require a 35T pinion, I doubt that would fit.
Now I am not married to the standard mount, what options do I have? Our track really requires a 1.9 FDR and no-one else runs an F104, the other cars I saw seem to have more room to fit such tall gearing.

Hugo,
You can go to a 64dpi combo. For example a 76T Xray spur and a 40T pinion will do the job.
I had the same issue with the 48dpi, it is very hard to find a small spur where you can use 12 or more balls.
