An engines cubic capacity cannot be converted, mathematically, to horsepower without a host of other information..
horsepower is engine power. cubic centimetres is engine displacement. (sometimes proportional but) they are not directly related.
CC's and horsepower are not related. CC is the size of the combustion chamber in cubic centimeters, or in the American system,in cubic inches. There are 16.387 cc in a ci. -So a 300 CI engine is roughly 4920 cc , or 4.92 litres.
That depends on many things. Simply there are fewer CCs per horsepower in a highly tuned racing car engine than in a lawn mower engine.
There is no direct relationship between the cylinder capacity of an engine and the horsepower that it can generate. It depends on the engine design, the fuel amongst other factors.
"Robert Fogt" The amount of horsepower output by an engine depends on more than just the engine size. For example, a tricked out 4.7 liter engine will have more horsepower than an old stock 4.7 liter engine. You wont be able to convert directly between them. For new cars you may be able to find data sheets that lists both engine size and horsepower. Otherwise you would have to take it to a shop to be placed on a machine to measure it.
you need the density of the liquid.
use a calcumalator stupid
no a 4.2 engine is in liter's not ccs.
I think it is somewhere around 50 horsepower, if I'm not mistaken.
You are trying to compare apples and donuts. 179cc is a size of engine that would have a fairly wide range of horsepowers. Horsepower is a power rating.
Depends what specific model of engine it is... Try looking up the model of car on Wikipedia and convert the KW (Kilowatts) to horsepower through an online converter :)
You can't convert cubic inches to horsepower. more cubic inches usually mean more horsepower but it horsepower is determined by more than displacement (i.e turbo chargers and engine internals). You can find horsepower per cubic inch by dividing horsepower by cubic inch, but there is no way to use just cubic inches to determine horsepower
