All engine power is based on piston displacment. Other factors enter in, such as compression, aspiration, exhaust gas pressure, but increasing displacement (cc's) determines the power available.
The cubic centimeter displacement of an engine does not determine its horsepower.
the horsepower of a car depends on the number of cylinders it has. The engine displacement does not affect the horsepower of a car by much.
"cc" means cubic centimeter which is a unit of volume. There is no correlation between volume (displacement) and horsepower of an engine. With a particular engine you could get a certain amount of horsepower, however adding a turbo/supercharger does not change the displacement of an engine, but it adds horsepower.
There is no increase in horsepower for the 2010 Corvette engines
horsepower is engine power. cubic centimetres is engine displacement. (sometimes proportional but) they are not directly related.
Boring out the cylinders enables you to put larger diameter pistons in the block. Having a larger diameter cylinder means that the displacement of the engine increases. This increase can provide greater horsepower. Boring out a worn-out engine a few thousandths of an inch can square up the bore of the cylinder and breath new life into a worn out engine by restoring its compression. Good compression will have greater effect on improving the performance than the slight gain in displacement.
There is no standard relation between horsepower and engine displacement.
This question really has no answer. Displacement (liters) and horsepower are two completely different types of measurements. Displacement measures how big the engine is, and horsepower measures the power output. A bigger or smaller engine doesnt mean more or less power.
There is no direct conversion from engine displacement to horsepower.
Horsepower is not measured in litres. Litres is a measure of engine displacement, not power. Power is roughly proportional to displacement, but also varies with many other factors.
Greater compression = greater fuel consumption = greater power
There is absolutely no direct correlation in horsepower and CC's. CC's is the engine size or displacement, whereas horsepower is the output generated by that engine. Horsepower can vary for a given engine based on altitude, temperature, and engine condition. If any of these variables change, the engine size or displacement remains constant, however, the output (horsepower) can vary significantly. To the person that says his honda engine is a x-horsepower with so many CC's, thus there are xx number of cc's in a horsepower, he is only correct when that particular engine is operating, at ideal standards equal to that of the manufacturer.
