I'll take a stab at this (though I'm a Guice n00b too! :-)...yes you can.
I've done this using a provider in a custom module such as:
@Provides
protected Engine myEngineProvider(MyPart part1, MyPart part2, ...) {
return new Engine(part1, part2, ...);
}
where Guice injects needed parts into the @Provider method then you use
them to call the Engine() constructor directly.
If one of the parts is similarly not controlled by you, you can create
providers for them as well in a similar fashion.
