A brief background: CC (or Cubic Centimeter) is a measure of unit displacement where as HP (or Horsepower) is a measure of energy exerted which is also a function of Torqueand RPM (Revolution per minute).
Although the two gets commonly misrepresented, there is not direct conversion from CCto HP. Although a widely accepted estimate ration on engine blocks is 15 - 17 CC = 1 HP.
So a rough answer to your question is (208 cc = )12.33 to 13.87 horsepower
Addition - not to take away:
The formula that is below only applies to the small newer normally aspirated (carbureted) 4 cycle engines. The ratios change slightly worse with altitude and slightly better with fuel injection and tuning. Most American mowers and the newer 4 cycle outboard motors fit into one of these two formulas:
Typical new carbureted small engine:
1 x HP per each 25 cc
Fuel injected:
1 x HP per each 22 cc
Notes:
-Most engines are tuned down to a lower HP for better engine life.
-It is common for the same cc engine to be built in 3 different HP versions with the highest rated being the maximized HP per cc version. That is how you see price and HP changes on the same cc engine made by the same company.
-Some of the newest (2008 and newer) engines from Japan perform slightly better.
A typical 150cc motor should equate to between 3.5 - 6 HP+ depending on tuning with 5 HP being the adv.
The actual formula plots as a curve and is not linear and also does not apply to Max/High Performance engines like motorcycles.
it means that it works on the lower h.p
what is the answer
I bought a 208 cc snowblower , how many horsepower is that ?
148cc=3.5HP
cc is a unit of area not power so ther is no presice answer
There is no standard conversion from cc's to hp. But as a guide, 338cc = aprox 11hp
148cc=3.5HP
Wrong question. A 208 cc engine (gasoline I suppose) has no fixed horsepower per cc. But experience can help here. It is about 12 horsepower or maybe more depending on the efficiency of the engine.
There is none. A 133 cc engine can have varying hp depending on many things.
254ccis how many horse power
5 hp
A 208cc engine would be a 8.32 Horsepower engine. The math goes like this... 1 x HP per each 25 cc for conventional engines. It is slightly lower for fuel injected engines, about 22 cc.
A 179 cc engine is around 5.5-6 horsepower. There's no hard and fast rules on cc to hp conversion there are too many variables.
In order to convert watts to CC, you will first need to convert both types of units into horsepower as this conversion is not direct. Before making the conversion, it is helpful to note that 700 watts is equal to 1 horsepower.
