i'd like to convert to 32 pitch because then i can get aluminum pinions from castle creations
You obviously don't know it yet, but you really don't want aluminum pinions on electric 1/8th scales.

I had a Centrury steel pinion wear out running against a Kyosho plastic spur. You would probably have to change your aluminum pinions every heat. (slight exageration, but only slight.)
