Power window modification

OK, somehow I got seduced into replacing my power window motors. Yes, yes, everything everyone said about the stock one applies to mine.
It sounded so good, so easy, so worthwhile.
I have the Ford motors here. I have the passenger side appart.
The Pantera regulator bracket is cut for the new motor.
I have not drilled the holes for the new motor because I have discovered that the new motor gear and the window regulator gear don't fully engauge. In fact I would say that they only engauge about 20%.
Now in reviewing the two articles that I read about this from the Pantera Place, neither article mentions this.
I, don't think this is good. The teeth are going to strip out of this setup with the slightest resistance out of the ordinary.
Please, to those of you have done this mod (LPB), tell me that this is how yours is and it has not been a problem.
I don't ever want to have into these door again, and the only way I'm going to put it back the way it was is to buy another entire Pantera to get the parts.
