Design Challenge (60m EC in prizes)

Hello everyone,
A year or so ago, I started working with the Foundry, but 90% of my ideas fell flat due to lack of a real plot and/or hook. I think I've finally come up with something interesting for my first published mission, but I need some help/ideas, and am willing to offer up 60m EC in prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.
I'm currently working on the Defiant map (Ship Interior Defiant 01). My goal is to create either an organic attachment(s) to the warp core, or completely hide the warp core with organic (or organic looking) details for this project. I can provide more details through in-game mail (@wired2thenet) if desired. To give a very broad outline, think "Gumtoo."
I've been working on designs for the last two weeks, and have hated everything I've come up with. I've been working on it so much I've stalled on other parts of the Foundry mission, and want to get back to it while it's still relatively fresh in my mind.
To this end, I'd like to open up a little challenge for Foundry members (with due credit given at the completion of the first mission). Design something for the Defiant map engine room that looks like an organic engine (completely covering up the existing Warp Core, or adding organic elements interfacing with it). I'm going to allow two weeks for the challenge (ending August 12th at midnight CDT).
I'd like to open the votes up to the community, to see what everyone thinks is the most interesting.
Prizes offered:
1st place: 30 million Energy Credits
2nd place: 20 million Energy Credits
3rd place: 10 million Energy Credits
See attached screenshot if interested, and contact me in-game (@wired2thenet) for any further details and or questions you might have.

Just the warp core (for now). It's an "organic drive" that would give the Feds a distinct advantage in any future conflict ... for reasons. It's being developed by the Daystrom Institute at the Utopia Planitia shipyard. Captain Shon will be commanding the test flight on a Defiant class starship (for power reasons). The player uses the hooks/consoles to help control the organic drive as much as possible, before things go south.
