Drill out a few more of the dimples on the mini jacker and try different heights you my find out your boat needs the motor to be a little lower.
When I first mounted my mini jacker I set it so the anti-cavitation plate was even with the bottom of the hull. The boat ran good so I tried putting a 1" thick wood block on top of the mini jacker. That was a little better so I raised the mini jacker 1" and tried it again with the 1" wood block and finely end did up with the anti-cavitation 2" above the bottom of the hull.


I'll try that and see what I come up with.
