I've never timed the 60-100mph time(I'd be more interested in the 100 to 60mph time), but air drag doesn't become noticable until I get over 90mph, so the air drag isn't having much affect on slowing my acceleration until I'm up in the 90's. I haven't been over 92mph since I had the lean burn engine installed, but it is still in lean burn with a fair amount of headroom left when cruising at that speed.
