Default graupner piper j-3 engine

asking for my friend
He has ordered piper, wingspan 71". The recommended engine is 7,5 cc but he is thinking to mount an 10 cc engine on it as he owns one already.
What do you guys think, will it be a problem?
I know it the plane going to be heavier and faster. But does it affect flying characteristics? Does the engine fit into cowl etc??

Thanks
