Gus,
Here is a thought. IIRC, you are adding dcc/sound? If so, you can lose a bit of the tender floor. If you are going to try to trim some weight from the boiler, be careful as it is not as thick in the walls as it might appear (If it is anything like my bowser kit). You might be able to drill strategically placed holes in the frame to lose a bit of mass as well. Just some thoughts, I could be VERY wrong (I have been told that it happens from time to time.)
