A guess-timate rule of thumb is 25cc per horsepower. So your snow blower would be about 7 horsepower.
5.5 to 6 h.p.
13.5
divide the cc by 15 to get the horsepower.
Approx. 7.5 hp
11 horsepower
12 hp
between 9 and 11hp
If it's a Kawasaki 179cc on a lawnmower, it seems the answer is 6hp. Check out this web site. http://www.masseyferguson.com/agco/mf/INTe/Products/GroundsCare/rotarymowers.htm
My 5 horsepower Tecumseh on my John Deere snowblower takes : ( 20 ounces / 600 ml )
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.
Depending how strong the horsepower is on the Kubota Snowblower or Snowmover would affect the amount of snow it can transfer. Some of the stronger and wider machines can move several feet of snow in just a few minutes.
You can't. It is like saying "how do I convert gallons into dollars". What you need to answer to do the conversion is "gallons of what?" What sort of engine do you have? ...2 stroke ...4 stroke? Since a typical 4 stroke fires half as often as a 2 stroke at the same RPM, the 2 stroke will put out approximately twice as much horsepower. Then, you have to state what RPM you are testing at. That said, a 179 cc 2 stroke motor could be expected to put out somewhere around 10 brake horsepower. Your mileage will vary.
