according to the chart, if you want to spin that motor higher, you need more power. says 300-350 hp is where you're sitting, and if you want to turn the motor to 6k, you need more power.

"AA" cut is a lot to ask for from a small block to turn much past 4K, an "A" cut will add a couple hundred rpm for you, and put you in peak rpm band.

Another big question is- is the boat dry or wet? alot of the old t boats got alot of water in the floors and transom, bulkheads because of the way they were layed up.
I have seen them so heavy from moisture in the wood. I have a shop and restore jet boats, there are so many things that affect performance.

I run mine 34 deg total, 600 or 750 cfm carb, cam is 224 234 duration @ .050. Crane. Mine is a v-drive. You could run 36 deg timing however the more rpm I like to run 34 deg, my reason with nitrous the timing needs to be retarded when applied. 2 deg for every 50 hp.
