The capacity of jet engines is measured in thrust:
B747-400 with 4 American Pratt & Whitney PW4000: 4x 441 kN = 1764 kN
B747-400 with 4 BritishRolls-Royce RB211 4x 272kN = 1088 kN
In strictly technical terms, the engines on a Boeing 747 do not deliver any actual horsepower. Horsepower is a unit of applied power and thrust is a measurement of force. The thrust numbers presented above appear correct for thrust of the engines.

What is the total horse power of all the engines of a Boeing 747?
All four engines produce a total of 224,000 pounds of thrust.
What is thrust by weight of Boeing 747?
The thrust generated by the engines of a Boeing 747 is typically around 56,000 to 63,000 pounds-force per engine. Each Boeing 747 aircraft is powered by four engines, so the total thrust produced by all engines combined is roughly 224,000 to 252,000 pounds-force.
How much thrust is produced by a Boeing 747?
This information should be available on the Boeing website or other avaition-related websites. For a quick answer, I will related my experiences from 1970's. Boeing certified the B747-200 to operate with General Electric CF6-50 engines. During take-off power, each GE engine could produce 56,000 lbs of thrust per enginer: or 224,000 lbs for a few minutes. Now, the larger B747-400 a/c have more powerful engines. Currently each engine on a Boeing 747-400 can generate a maximum of about 63,300 lbs of thrust. Accordingly, since this aircraft has four engines it can produce total thrust of about 253,000 lbs.
What is the horsepower of one engine in a Boeing 747?
Well, honey, a Boeing 747 typically has four engines, each with a whopping horsepower of around 56,750. So, if you do the math, that's a whole lot of power propelling that big bird through the sky. Just imagine the size of the engine needed to generate that kind of oomph!

What are the dimensions of a Boeing 767?
A Boeing 767 is 180 feet total feet in length. It is 156 feet and one inch wide. The tail rises 52 feet above ground level.
What is the horsepower for a 707 jet?
The horsepower of a Boeing 707 jet engine can vary depending on the specific engine model used. Generally, the Pratt & Whitney JT3D engines, commonly found on the 707, produce about 18,000 to 22,000 pounds of thrust each, which translates to approximately 26,000 to 30,000 horsepower per engine. Given that the 707 typically has four engines, the total horsepower can be around 104,000 to 120,000.
