Just look to engine mount.
There is 3 holes, with small spur you can use bottom one to hold engine.
Or just redrill 2 holes in spur if there is some place.
Also I recomend use 3 screws from nitros 8mm lenght for 2.5mm socket.
With 3 screws engine will not move
Regards!

Not really, what motor are you using and on a TC6 you should be able to fit every pinion, sometime you need to turn your pinion the other way, what is important is that the grub screw sits on the flat part of shaft.

From what I gathered so far , you run a 10.5t std with a 120A HW with a 30t pinion and a 87t spur (only thing not sure you did not mention)
For a 10.5t your gearing should be around 7.57 (87t spur and 23t pinion) why are you using a 30t??

nol i use 80 spur now, and 30 pinion. That track is very specific outdoor, with big corners, and is not great grip. 7.57 would be too strong. Why can't use 5.3? Motor temp is around 50-55 degree C.

For grip you have to look at your chassis set up not your motor one.
A friend of mine is running your speedo with first HB 10.5t, he was running 87t and 29t (fdr 6) and this was not very good, our track is long and fast too.
He is running with a 10.5t LRP X12 now and we got him to reduce his pinion to 24t, his motor is getting a little bit too hot (fdr 6.96)
I think you should try a lower pinion, 25t to start, check your heat and see if you are faster, and eventually 22t pinion, do the same.
An other thing to consider is the set up of speedo, maybe it is not set correctly for your fdr.
I understand why your motor does not match properly with your spur, I have never tried this pinion/spur size personally.

i was told to use that drive ratio, from drivers who race there, they use 6.2-5.7 but for me 5.3 suits better. I know i have to work on my setup and probably ill back to 5.7 or 6. That track is for nitro with longs straights and looong fast corners that's why don't need fast acceleration but fast car
ok so still don't know how to set that pinion
try to reverse it but it may touch belt!
