Top end on our 1977 F-26 trimmed and normal loading was 25 mph at 4000 rpm which is just about WOT (I think the spec is 4200 for the Chrysler 318). Hull speed is obviously faster than that but from what I've seen on the forum anything over 30mph and the boat gets squirrely to handle. Our boat has the stock 318 engine, 4bbl. It was tuned to specs when I ran it at max speed.
