Default Saito 270 T twin FS

Aloha from Hawaii.
I would like some input on my newest project I'm about to get started. 1st of all, I recently aquired an un-used (brand new/old) saito 270 twin fs and am planing to install it in my new 105" citabria which I got from general hobby, the plane calls for a 50cc size gas engine, the saito is 43cc nitro twin. Will this be 1)too big? or 2)too heavy? I know the real citabria doesn't have any fins/engines sticking out from both sides, I guess mine will, ha,ha.
Has anyone had expierence with twins, this is my first twin, all my other engine from .50 to .180 are saito's.
Any help or advice or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for all your responses.
Mahalo from Kauai, Hawaii.
Sincerely, Mike.
