I don't have my Tiger POH handy; so this is conjecture:

Fuel consumption can be used as an indicator of horsepower. Remember that POH fuel consumption figures usually are based on correct leaning.

If the Lycoming manual gives fuel consumption for specific horsepowers; then you can match the fuel consumption for 75% & 65% against the POH fuel consumption for a specific airspeed and pressure altitude.
