Default RE: Bigger engine on P-51 PTS RTF?

ORIGINAL: Ice Fun

I am still torn between the NexStar and P-51 Trainer but recently I have been leaning more towards the P-51 because of its good looks and many features. I was wondering that because of the P-51's cowl, could I still fit a larger engine on the firewall? I don't see a replacement 3-blade prop. as an accessory on the P-51. Are those even availabe? Could a larger engine even be installed on the NexStar? Sorry, I'm not familiar with the engines and their mount sizes.

I read that a OS 50fx 2S fits in the cowl without cutting it all up. that is in the P51
