Hi Jim. Yes, I think there is room to add an engine.
I have been toying with the idea on a standard M1078. I would make the cab hinged so you could tilt it forward to show off the engine.
I am surprised Trumpeter didn't add the engine and cab tilt like they did on their Chinese 50-ton Tank Transporter. That is a really good kit and quite the sleeper. You don't realize how nice it is until opening the box.

Good review
did Trumpeter leave room for an aftermarket engine in your opinion? or would the cab have to be reworked?
Thanks
