I thought the Tamiya gears were closer to 48p
There are two commonly used Tamiya pitches. The 04 module parts (as supplied with the F104Pro kit) are very, very close to 64p, but not quite. You might well get away with it, but with increased wear rate. I think the difference is less than 1%, but still there.

The other one they use is nowhere near 48p or 64p and commonly used on the more mainstream kits such as TT-01, TA05 etc.
