Default RE: Published versus calculated thrust readings

Kitchen cynics OK?
I like your chart -good ballpark info
Where I see problems in getting best actual thrust reading -is that the airfame - cowl- prop proximity to cowl etc., all affect the "raw" prop data. Here is my "better " setup suggestion on getting good prop efficiency - move the prop as far as possible from any cowl points.
