I installed it with the motor plate not all the way in and it works, but I'd rather get it so that it's installed properly. I go by the sound that the motor makes when fired in semi.
I don't want to risk stripping any gears if the motor isn't properly set in place in the mechbox.
I asked airsoftextreme and they said that they have seen guys who have removed the front fin to get it to work, but I haven't seen any photos. Most of the dremelling of the plastic in the motor plate is to make space for the wire routing. The part on the PTS that the motor sits into is a larger diameter than the original CA one.
Last, last resort that I can think of is to dremel off those fins and then gradually grind down that plastic part that the motor sits on until the motor sits/sounds properly.
BTW, what are the resulting damage when a motor is too far into the mechbox and making that high pitched sound and what is the possible damage when the motor is not far up into the mechbox enough? In my haste, I removed the adjustment screw on the original CA motor plate, so I had to gauge the "proper sound" from memory.
