You are not missing anything.  An L4B converted to 6M will be something
around 50% efficient because the components used have not been optimized for
that band.  If your 750W output is key down you will realize over 1KW PEP
and that is good on 6M.

Bill, What's left to optimize? only stock Drake part is the bifilar choke, everything else is designed for 6 meters.
The Raytrack Horizon 6L amp (similar to L4B) is rated at 2kw pep.
