How do you Convert cc to hp horsepower?

1. Find the engine displacement in liters. This is the volume of the engine's cylinders, measured in liters. You can find this information in the vehicle's owner's manual or by searching online.

2. Multiply the engine displacement by the number of cylinders. This will give you the total displacement of the engine in liters.

3. Multiply the total displacement by the bore (or diameter) of the cylinders in inches. This will give you the piston displacement in cubic inches.

4. Multiply the piston displacement by 0.5. This will give you the horsepower of the engine.

For example, a 2-liter, 4-cylinder engine with a bore of 3.5 inches has a piston displacement of 140 cubic inches. Multiplying this by 0.5 gives us a horsepower of 70.

Here is the formula for converting cc to hp:

Horsepower = (engine displacement in liters x number of cylinders) x (bore in inches) x 0.5
