Is there a separate Cert/endorsement specifically for a 337 (Center line thrust)?

I am not sure anyone answered your questions. If you take all your training in a Skymaster there is a Limitation that is stamped on the back of your pilots license that indicates you are limited to Center Line Thrust. It's not an endorsement; it's a restriction. I don't suggest that you achieve your MEL qualification in a Skymaster. As you will be restricted to ONLY Center Line Thrust. Some say that is all they will ever fly. Well, maybe but if I was going to spend the money I would want to NOT have the limitation but still enjoy flying the Skymaster.

Just my suggestion as I been there done that........

As you advance your CFI will guide you to the pace you need to learn. The typical progression is SEL, SEL complex, Retractable Gear (could be ME) MEL and somewhere in between SEL and complex would be IFR
