The formula that works best only applies to the small newer normally aspirated (carburetor) 4 cycle engines. The ratios change slightly worse with altitude and slightly better with fuel injection and tuning. Most American mowers and the newer 4 cycle outboard motors fit into one of these two formulas:

Typical new carbureted engine well tuned:

1 x HP per each 25 cc

Fuel injected:

1 x HP per each 22 cc

Notes:

  • Most engines are tuned down to a lower HP for better engine life.
  • It is common for the same cc engine to be built in 3 different HP versions with the highest rated being the maximized HP per cc version. That is how you see price and HP changes on the same cc engine made by the same company.
  • Some of the newest (2008 and newer) engines from Japan perform slightly better.
  • A typical 150cc motor should equate to between 3.5 - 6 HP+ depending on tuning with 5 HP being the adv.
  • The actual formula plots as a curve and not linear but does not apply to Max/High Performance engines like motorcycles.

277 cc converted into horsepower?

I understand that a 250 cc engine is around a 15 hp motor, so a 277 cc engine calculates about 16.5hp. there is no direct conversion between cc and hp because cc is a volume and hp is a energy.


How many cc is 6 HP?

A little over 250cc The easiest conversion is to take the (hp x 42.3) = cc this of course is not exact but very very close... 253.8cc


How many HP is equl to CC?

The relationship between horsepower (HP) and engine displacement, measured in cubic centimeters (CC), is not a direct equivalence as they are measuring different aspects of an engine's performance. Horsepower is a unit of power, representing the rate at which work is done, while CC measures the total volume of the engine's cylinders. The conversion between HP and CC varies depending on the engine's design, efficiency, and other factors, making it impossible to provide a simple, fixed conversion rate between the two units.

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.
