As far as focus is concerned, most color CRTs specify the focus voltage to be a
percentage of the high voltage, not an actual independent voltage. So there
shouldn't be a problem with the focus voltage range AS LONG AS THE FLYBACK IS
DESIGNED FOR A TUBE WITH THE SAME RANGE.

If the screen (G2) output pot doesn't go high enough you could probably fix
that by connecting the low side of the high voltage winding to some positive B+
or boost voltage instead of ground. This would slide G2, focus, and the high
voltage outputs up by that amount. This would be negligible as far as the high
voltage and focus outputs are concerned, but would make quite a difference for
the G2 output.
