Message around 246hp at the crank??!! (based on the logic below), what would my dyno tourqe numbers come out to be??

Honestly, I was happy with the dyno numbers, and the guy running the dynometer said he was surprised that my automatic suffered limited drivetrain loss, he said most NA Z's with simliar mods do around 186rwhp, and he also noted headers do NOTHING for the NA Z- needless to say my Z is healthy, plus low miles and Synthetic engine/tranny oil doesn't hurt either I guess :)

:Doesn't know drive line loss (can assume say..18%)
:Doesn't know flywheel HP
:so, it would be (wheel HP)/(1-driveline loss)= (Flywheel HP, in theory)
:therefore...
:197.3/0.82=240.6 flywheel HP
:197.3/0.80=246.6 flywheel HP
:197.3/0.85=232.1 flywheel HP
:I know driveline losses are not linear, so don't bother lecturing me, this is just an easy way to estimate.
