I have an 89 with the 351. Bottom line is the boat wasn't designed for a big wake. Having the larger motor will help you out a little bit and you'll be able to load it a little bit more than I can load mine. I used to strictly wakeboard behind my boat for 4 or 5 years and thought it had a pretty good wake, until I started riding with other people who have v-drives. An empty v-drive has just as big if not bigger wake with a better shape than my boat loaded with 1000 lbs.
