F7 daily driver cam I was thinking about getting a Futral F7 224/230, with a 114lsa for my daily driven SS. The plan is the get it after my headers go in. Anyway I was wondering where usable power will start, I already figure I'll have to start driving in 5th gear at 60-65mph (instead of 6th). Also without any overlap I was hopping my mileage wouldn't be affected except for not being able to ride at 1300rpm anymore. Anyone think this cam is a bad idea?

okay good, I was also wondering at what rpm this cam would get choked off at. In the future I would like to rev my LS1 past 7000rpm with some strong internals and some good heads (haven't decided which heads yet). Any chance this small of cam would make any power at 7000rpm? Assuming it is the limiting factor.
