I had a fuel cosumption chart from J&T a year or so ago that I had given to 
Capt.Perry
It was for N 80 injectors on a 671N. When fuel was at 4.25 a gallon i only ran 
at 10 kts and fuel consumption from that chart was 3GPH each engine at 1200 
RPM. If you run at 1800 RPM it goes way up to double digits each.
You mat try to contact Johnson and Towers to get the power curve chart if Capt 
Perry does not have it.
