Yes - could be anywhere between 650 and 710 depending on whether you believe that a given drive train costs you a fixed amount of horsepower, regardless of how much the motor makes, or if you believe the drive train is a percentage loss, where motors with more power lose more between the crank and the wheels. If you use 20% loss for an automatic - it comes out at 710 - which makes me very happy... Not sure if I believe it, but I'm not going to take the motor out and engine dyno it to burst my own bubble.
