I used two IG autocannons, trimmed and glued together. There's a fellow who posted his instructions for doing so in one of the P&M forums. No pictures as of yet, the whole thing's still a WIP.

I use Assault Cannons and Plasma Cannons, but I would vote for either the Aegis or IG Sentinel Cannons.

I've used the Aegis defense line cannon for my Hydras, and the piece looks like it'd work fine for Dread' ACs too.

Most are using the Aegis line cannons because it's really easy. I didn't think it looked enough like a dreadnought weapon and I used the Leman Russ Executioner autocannons (the barrels have been trimmed shorter since I took those pictures)
That's a missile launcher arm with the executioner cannons and an ammo can for a sponson heavy bolter, fit together with a little putty

Personally I feel the cannon barrels look too long on that dreadnought. The Heavy bolter arm is some very nice work though.
