Anything over 50 is doing great, over 60whp over baseline is an anomaly, a gracious dyno or a combination of low temps, full bolt ons, tuning, low elevation, and at least a dynojet. The dyno I've been using is reporting around 18-20% drivetrain loss in crappy Vegas weather and elevation.

I don't know where Mike is, but your numbers are
severely negatively affected by power and elevation, even with very high CF's.
At sea level in FL, where I am, the summer heat and humidity will absolutely kill power, no matter how much correction is used.
The SAE guys need to develop better corrections for their estimates...
