Basically looking at getting a Newman PH3 cam and on Kams website it says power increase between 3-7K. Would it be ok to get a limiter raised to 7k on a standard internal silvertop VTR??? Thanks
You'd need uprated valve springs - £60 from Piper.

I had a similar profile cam fitted to my VTR and I didn't think there was any need to raise the rev limiter - made peak power well before the std limiter. I wouldn't even get it mapped, doesn't need it imo. Have the timing adjusted on the rollers and save for a closer ratio gearbox: VTS, S2 Rallye, 1.4 XSI etc.
