The main reason they use the 1.8 for boosting in drag cars is mainly the fact 
that you can blow them up all day long and get more bottem ends for free.
Thats how I remember those two explaining why they run 1.8s. Cost and 
availability was the main reason. 
The rod ratio of the 1.8 is more boost freindly too aiding in longevity.

not knocking your choice of engines just adding another point of view
