I would like to obtain the uninstalled specific fuel consumption (lbs fuel per HP per hour) value of the R-2800-59 at Takeoff Power (2000 hp) at sea level standard day. For a book that I am writing and for two technical papers that I plan to write. My thanks to anyone who can help.

0.78 lb/hp/hr, based on the difference between the -21 and -59 being negligible at 2000 hp. The only difference between the -21 and -59 is the harness and water injection.
