Default Model Motor ?'s

Allright, my little brother got a 1:25 scale honda civic model (die cast) for christmas, even though he hasn't put it together, I looked at the back of the box and it comes with a model 4-cylinder (sweet.) So, I asked him if I could have the motor and he said that he didn't really care, so I'm about to get it, but I've got some questions about using it in my XMod.

First, I had some ideas about mounting it to the front strut area, ya know, so you can see it when you take off the hood. I though about super glueing it on there, but I convinced myself that that's a bad idea, becuase I'll probably be getting aluminum upgrades for it sometime soon. So the question is would velcro be a good idea? Put the loop on the strut and put the hook part on the bottom of the motor (so you can't see it.) I think that this is a better idea because once I get some aluminum upgrades, I can just put some more loop tape on the aluminum piece and not have to worry about getting it apart from the super glue. Is this a better idea? Or, is there an even better alternative, BUT one where I can transfer the motor to other XMods, and other parts.

Please help (I'll just do the velcro if you don't )
