Moving CoM for Individual Parts?

Is it possible to move the CoM forward or back (or even left/right) for an individual part, say using XML?

    @AstleyIndustries figured it out, it's on the first page of the Overload menu at the very bottom, x,y,z coords.

    @ChiChiWerx for some reason you cant add new lines under the "Part" category

    @AstleyIndustries I figured that was the way, but when I looked at the engine in Overload, could not find the CoM as a variable, have only seen that variable for the fuselage piece. Might I add it as a new line in Overload?

    Yes, modify the CoM variable. It offsets the part CoM from its original place. Remember that it is affected by part rotation.
    I find it very useful for cars
