Default Is An OS 55AX The Right Engine?

I've got a Das Little Stick with a Super Tigre G-51, pipe and header (14,000 with an APC 12.25x3.75) that I love flying. 4lb plane, stupid vertical. I'm not into 3D just lots of POOWWWAAAHHH.

Well I want a bit bigger plane (and flaps) so I'm thinking about getting an Ultra Stick 40 which is a 5.5 to 6lb plane. If I put an OS 55AX on it with pipe, header and something like a 13x4 or 13x5 will I get stupid vertical like my Little Stick? Or will I have to put a 61 or so on it. If I need it bigger Imay look at a Jett 60 or 76 for it to save the weight.
