Default Well..

13-15% is normal drivetrain losses for a typical modern rwd manual transmission Ford. And by modern, I mean about 1985 and later. That loss was confirmed on multiple occasions using a superflow engine dyno and a dynojet chassis dyno at Mustang Ranch in Santa Clara, CA.

260+rwhp for a new manual transmission Mustang sounds about right. My 03 4.6L Marauder daily driver with the slushbox pulls 250rwhp on a dynojet 248.
