I also enjoy seeing how folks work with the kit frame--it's cheap as free, has zero lead time, and handles just about anything you could want to do. (Alright, fine, live axles take a bit more work.)
I've got three possible theories on the absence of the KoP gearbox:
1) It may just be cheaper for them to build four ridiculously-simple gearboxes than to order two more from IFI. (AndyMarks would be another option, but then you've got two different sets of spare parts.)
2) I don't quite know how you'd run the encoder on the kit gearbox.
3) Perhaps there's some weight advantage to it?
