If I could ask a greater question... Do you know where the caps lock key is?

LOL, He did say he was new. I think either one could run that motor. Your best bet would be to start from scratch and rebuild the diffs for both vehicles.

a 3.5T motor would DESTROY the std plastic diff on a TA05

Better to get something that will take that sort of power, TC5, Xray , ets etc rather than a cheap plastic tub car.
Invest in a gear diff as well.

Expect to have to spend some money .
Time to get real ?

3.5t for drag racing !!be real man, go and buy a higher wind motor, more like 8.5t minimum.

mod racing like 3.5t involves also very good batteries and perfect car setup and fdr.

you bought the wrong gear...
