Engine choice for minelaying frigate |

Presumably once a person starts building minelaying frigates, they only want one design, so choosing the right one is important.
A race with IFE will use the FM, period.
An IT race, in a small, packed universe without IFE or NRSE has a few choices.
DLL7, AD8, RadRam or TGFS.
The IT will generally gate them around, or move them short distances to make new fields, so I'm thinking of the cheaper DLL7 or RadRam. I think the TGFS uses too much G for a factory-using race. On the other hand, the AD8 allows for faster repositioning/evasion - but it's a packed universe so there's usually a planet near.
What engine would you use in this case?
Oh, and I assume you wouldn't bother with a shield because if your minelayers are being fired on, you've already messed up
