A larger engine will just throw the car's balance off. I would personally go with a nice .12 with a low end torque header and a midrange power pipe. The .12 will allow for a more neutral steering feel. Also, drifting doesn't require massive power, especially if you're planning on running ABS, PVC, Yokomo ringed tires, etc.
