the stock servo has more power than the one you are trying to install.

You need to shorten the screws that holds the servo saver on. It is most likely bottoming out not allowing your servo saver to sit all the way down. That causes the holes not to line up. I ran into the same situation when I installed the Spectrum S9020. I dremeled down the screw a few mm and I was able to get the servo saver all the way down. You can also use a shorter screw.

When you go to remove the servo saver from the top of the servo you first have to remove a plastic set screw. After that is out, the screw underneath it is the one that I am talking about.
