42 big step with 6s that run over 100mph

Curious on the ones out there how the water pickups are set up? I’m having some porpoise issues accelerating after 98 mph. I have a strong feeling I’m disturbing the water off the back of the boat. Let see some pics. Thanks !!

Adrenalinejunkey’s has 4 pickups. 2 for engines 2 for chillers. Pretty standard install, either side of center line.

Im identical to that. I also have 2 pickups for the chillers on either side of the drain plug. What would cause this thing to lift and break the prop bite at over 100. Spins 17x33-15 rake
