e-Electric Conversions > Pinions for 8mm motorshafts?

I've got several large motors, an Actro 32-4 and an LRK430, both with 8mm shafts. I want to convert a 60\90 size nitro mechanics (Hirobo, MA) for these motors, however, their pinions have holes meant for clutches (6mm?).

Is there a source for pinions that will mesh with their main gears, and yet fit on an 8mm shaft? Is it even possible to put a 10 tooth on an 8mm shaft? What are the tooth ranges even available for this shaft?

Step down the motorshaft using a coupler from SDPI.com (Stock Drive Prodcuts Inc.). You can step down from 8mm to 5mm with a coupler and then use a 30V1 start shaft to put the pinion on and a bearing on top of that.
