Is there a ball layout to increase ball revolutions.

No there isn’t. You can get low RG balls that’ll rev sooner, but nothing is going to make you gain RPMs

Welcome to BowlingChat

Coaching to learn how to impart more revs.
Fitting can have an impact as well.
Slowing the ball speed and keeping the same revs can have a similar effect to adding more revs.

There are Layouts that can optimize what you have.
Based on your posted release specs and assuming medium rotation (45*) you are close to Matched Speed to revs. Just a little bit speed dominant. Higher rotation will add to this speed dominance and change my recommendations.
Sweetspot Totals are 90* with a 1.25:1 Ratio
You want to feel like you have more Revs, use lower totals like with the Midlane and Totally Strong layouts.

Asymmetrical Layouts
Totally Strong .................55-5-25
Midlane ....................... 30-4.5-40
Benchmark ................... 50-4-40
Long and Strong ............. 70-4-40
Control ....................... 50-4-60 adjust to Pin in the ring finger
low flare ..................... 70-2.25-40
