Default 7 test flight soon

RV-7 Catto prop, 0-360, weighed in at 1104 lbs. Classic Aero interior added a fair bit of weight. With the light weight prop I knew the c of g was going to be a little aft. Empty C of G is 2.71 aft of forward limit and most scenarios work out to be in the middle to most aft C of G. I know of an RV6 with Catto prop that added weight to flywheel. I was thinking with the larger tail on the 7 there will be much more authority than the 6.
I was wondering if there are any other 7 owners out there with same or similar scenario as this that can tell me how their aircraft performed.

Thanks,

Steve
