Default Rear wheel loss to accessories

how much horsepower does an LS1 with M6 lose to the wheels because of accessories etc.

I always went with 11%. So if you make 335 to the wheels then you are making around 372 to the flywheel. Is this accurate?

alt, water pump, power steering...a/c would be the most insignificant until the clutch kicks in...
