336 is the replacement for the 311.
336 has slightly higher ceiling in the cabin. Has optional electric footrests and electric bolsters versus the fixed footrests on the 311 and the manual/hydraulic bolsters on the 311. Swim platform is molded in, not bolted on, but is higher out of the water and the Silent Thunder on that platform is louder.
Dash is redone.
At best, the same speed as a 311 with similar power, at worst, one or two mph slower.
A good friend had a '88 311 with 454's, a '90 311 with 502's, and a '93 336 with 525sc's. My '91 311 was faster than either of his 311's, but the 336 with small blower pulleys ran 84.
I honestly like a lot of stuff about the 311 better, but I'm sure I'm biased.
