Default Engine size for GP Extra 300s 40

Hello,

I am going to be building a Great Planes Extra 300 40 size kit over this winter.

I currently have a 4*40, and have a TT Pro 46 in it for an engine.

I was thinking of putting a slightly larger (the TT Pro 61) engine in the Extra.

What do you guys think?

Will it still fit in the cowl (I have the fiberglass cowl)?

Will it be too much power for this plane, or make it too heavy?

Also, any links or suggestions for building this kit, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

bret.
