Cut down rear deck with all-around vision canopy and vertical stail strake as needed for stability & control purposes?
Of course, there's always that Yugoslav conversion to a DB601, too.

elmayerle:
There was a sofback book/magazine out recently on the Hurricane that depicted various alternate engine fits studied by Hawker but not pursued. Those would be interesting. Assuming the windscreen remained basically unchanges, it does make for some variation in potential canopy changes. One thought that occurs to me is redoing the aft turtledeck with windows, much like some of the Italian fighter prototypes had, rather than cutting it down. That could follow as a second step with a fixed aft portion that would allow the existing sliding canopy, or something with similar interfaces with the airframe to be used as I can see a malcolm-style or blown canopy on the same frame as an approach without all the internal bracing the stock canopy has.
