I'm sure there is no hard and fast rule but I have 261 rwkw after mods - what's that in kw at the crank? As in, Holden markets kw at the engine?

You've probably got around 350kw at the crank. You loose 25-30% through the drive train.

Engine KW is roughly equal to Rear wheel HP so 261rwkw is roughly 350hp so you have roughly 350kw at the engine
