I'm pretty sure that using the standard mgh/t formula works fine, if I change it around a bit, I can get fgh/3600, where f is flow rate in L/h, g is 9.81m/s^2 and h is height in m. The units should cancel out properly if we take into account that 1L = 1kg for water, and that 1h = 3600s. I remember doing something similar to find the maximum height of a water jet in 1st year physics, I'm pretty sure that's right. I don't really know much about specific gravity, but I'm assuming that's also right.
