Default Diesel airframe equivalence

While I'm dreaming and scheming, looking at [link=http://uk.geocities.com/[email protected]/cwdata/chihuahua0002.html]the chihuahua[/link] on that wonderful plans site, I noticed the engine outlined on the plan appears to be a diesel. Would a tee dee .09 be in the safe range of power for an airframe made for 1cc to 1.5cc diesel?

Diesels are slightly more potent than glow for a given displacement, aren't they?
