I don't know - I think the paper fin-fairing shrouds are more robust the the vacuform fairings in the 2157 and the balsa fins are far better than early vacuform fins (later 2157 kits had injection molded fins - much better).
That being said, most of the 2157 Saturns I built (and I built a bunch - at least a dozen) I used cast resin fin-fairings from Moldin-Oldies (that was before the 3d printed units were available).

If you go for a 29mm mount you for sure want to replace the stock fin-fairings with something more robust.
