PS853 has a Shack engine but has had the gearbox at the front modded with a firefly unit if memory serves me correctly, to convert it to a single prop, it also had other mods like part of the rear casing machined down and the lifting eyes on the rockers also cut down so it would fit, when doing engine changes etc they have to swop the rocker covers so they have the lifting eyes.
