1100 Evo Rear Sprocket (again)

Having decided to adopt the rear sprocket upgrade to 42 I managed to get a JT carrier but can't get a Renthal sprocket anywhere. Renthal have suspended their direct sales due to Covid but told me to try B&C express who do have a good selection of sprockets.....but not the 358A-525-42P-HA which is the one I need. I've plumped for a JT alloy for the moment but its not as "pretty" as the Renthal. I guess I'll have to wait post Covid for production to resume. The Renthal guy said production was not actually suspended indefinitely but scaled down atm.

What I have sourced via ebay is a 42 tooth Renthal but in 520 gauge. This may turn out to be useless to me but in my limited experience I can't see any reason why I can't convert front and rear sprockets and chain to a 525. I am very happy to be convinced I am wrong so please fire away!
