I was thinking about cutting around 14cm off the bottom so I can get the extension out and then it is short enough to use my 5.7 and 6.6 which normally use a 430
How long is the extension?
From the picture I'm guessing that it far from set at maximum extension, and then you have an additional 10cm (approximately) after that. So unless it is set at, or near, maximum extension you will need to cut off a lot more than 14cm.
