Default 7A cams for 3b build

as I'm putting together the parts for my RS2 build, I have the opportunity to pick up a set of 7A cams. Head is going to come off anyway, per studs and gasket renew, are the 7A cams a good thing? other than high end power, which the GT28RS turbo will be making lots of...

Most just use the exhaust cam from the 7A, as it's the closest thing to the RS2 exhaust cam. If you use the intake cam with it, I heard it will loose bottom end power and will come on very hard at higher RPMs. Not very driveable I heard when using both cams.
