Another dumb pulley question.

We picked up a Landa with a the T1011 pump.

It has the 2AK84 pulley on the pump (8.25 inches) and the 3TB34 pulley (3.75 inches on the motor (24MM shaft) The motor is a 11hp Honda GX340Max (11 hp)

The machine is supposed to be either 4.2 gpm @ 2000 or 4.5 gpm @ 2000 (unclear) and the max on the pump is supposed to be 5.6 gpm @ 1500.

Since I already use #9 tips and keep my PSI at around 1100 on my 4.7gpm/3500psi machine - I think I want to set this machine up for higher flow, lower psi.

What will it take to get this to 5.6 gpm? A 6.4 inch pulley?
What about 6 gpm @ 1200 psi? Is that possible?
 
A 6.4 will spin the pump at 1450 rpms, which will give you 5.6 gpm. Making it spin faster will get you 6 gpm, but I don't recommend it.
