Genoa cut

I am about to order a new genoa for my CAL 2-34 - the existing Kevlar racing genoa is shot. The Luff and leach are almost equal in lenght at 39.5 and 37.8 ft respectively, with a foot of 20ft - my question for this learned group is - since I never yet sailed this boat, whould a headsail cut as such severely restrict forward visibility? Are there any of you out there that have a 140 -150 Genoa like that and wish you would have cut it higher on the leech? Any and all input will be appreciated.
