You should be able to make it fit, but have to do a little dremel work on the left rear arm mount. I can fit a 118/54 on my car with a Losi or Novak motor. The SP/Feiago based motors have a longer endbell that stops me at a 52 tooth. All you do is dremel the arm mount down little by little to get the motor to slide back. If dremeling the arm mount isn't your cup of tea, then the PRS adapter with a smaller spur is the way to go.
At the 2 tracks I've run 10.5 at, I haven't gone higher than 118/49. Otherwise it gets too hot and bad things happen.
