I see where you're going, but you can't every have
guaranteed implied odds. V has shown the willingness to stack off when the most obvious of draws gets there, but that doesn't mean he'll do it all the time. There's also the fact that we need to hit our hand.
I would structure it the other way around. Since V has raised $65 and we're agreeing that he's never going to fold and since he's taken the driver's seat, you can look at it as we're going to have to call $295 (or at the very least, another big bet) to see the turn and river.
I know my reasoning is a little fuzzy here, but looking at it as calling $52 to win $400 assumes 1) you're going to bink the flush on the turn and 2) he's going to call it off. #1 is only 19% to happen (assuming the 7 doesn't boat him) and #2 is villain dependent, but IME V's who just stacked off to a flush don't do it in back to back hands with weak holdings. YMMV.
