Honestly, unless a design absolutely requires a few extra critical spaces, I do not get compact engines. They just consume too much mass.
For instance, if you switched back to a standard engine on this design, you could upgrade the CASE to CASE II, and get a third one for the CT (as the supercharger has to go there with this change). You also save enough mass to armor your engine, gyro, cockpit, and shoulder and hip actuators and add a bit more armor.
But, that’s just the engineer in me doing a cost/benefit analysis.

good point about the compact engine maybe it is designed for the supercharger to make up with lower engine rating. The damage resistance engine does not really add up pr I could be a fad with primitive mech components. That's why it is called ABC. it is just a test.
When I design a mech upgrade or all-new one I try to keep coast down or cheaper that main model, without major loss of damage and speed, protection.
