The real answer is it doesn't matter, because gasoline piston engines are remarkably similar.

One look at the specs of the engine (no VTEC, bore, stroke, rev limit fall within typical range) tells you 240-250g/kWh is probably as good as it gets, and generally there's an island of peak efficiency somewhere in the 2000-3000rpm range at 80+ Nm/L load.

The peak efficiency doesn't even really matter, because it only varies 5-10% within a several thousand rpm range above 1500rpm most of the time. When you drive a car, the engine speed is going to be changing all the time, so you can never be that precise.
