Don't worry about changing that guide for the new reel. The spool size will not have the adverse affect that you think. It's not like doing a complete concept build as long as you keep that in mind when you build the rod.

I was going to build a concept rod completely. I just didn't want to pigeonhole myself. Essentially I need to lighten my gear. Every year my right shoulder gets worse and worse. Not necessarily from fishing but Pre-existing conditions that repetitive casting aggravates. I just don't want to have to deal with the surgery that It will take to repair my arm. If I can lighten my gear and alter my casting slightly I think I'll be okay.
