Default Only 4500 RPMs

Newly rebuilt 94' evinrude Ocean pro, just finished break in last season. have about 2 hours on it this season running regular fuel ( no double oil for break in ) the controls are from 94' mechanic still has to fix them the fast idle lever never worked. the problem I have, is now that I can open it up, when I bury the throttle I only get 4500 (31 MPH on GPS )on the Tach. I think he told me the prop was 15-1/2 - 17, it's aluminum. Can it be the throttle cables need to be adjusted ? I should be getting 5500 correct ?
