Default engine blown?

I have a list of screws and a linkage I need for my car...but before I place my order I want to know if I should just go ahead and put my SS on while I have the FE off. If I put my SS on the manual (from the hpi site) says I need to buy different engine mounts, screws and collet. Whats a collet? I cant use the engine mounts on my engine now (the SS)? And why can I use the ones that are on my FE? How do I know if my engine accepts a collet?


Quote from the manual:

*Note: Optional engines require either A863, A915, or A920 engine mounts, four Z517 screws and an A804 Collet. You will also need a flywheel that accepts a collet (A925 or A926 is recommended.

If you online order i recomend u do it at tower hobbies,
i dont see why u just dont keep the pipe that is on it. you have to learn how to tune your engine first to get the rpms out of the engine first. A new pipe is as good as a rock to the car if you dont tune it right . Work with the car a bit more then if u like u can start "hopping" it up if you want.
