Ive tried to "Colombo-ize" a few Katos so far, seems it might be easier to stretch the board out just a bit, and not putting anything in the areas that would be right above the square motor mount that limit the clearance between the top of the frame and the bottom of the shell. Since most of the motors seem to be about the same length, this might be a viable approach for road units at least. I may end up trying the speaker in the fuel tank, but on the Milwaukee SD40-2's, Ive already had to hack off the front of the fuel tank to make it the correct size, and would rather leave a little weight down there. Anyone have problems with the tank mounted speakers picking up magnetic debris or being affected by MTL uncouplers?
