There are many variables in this but gererally for an automatic car, there is a 22% loss in power from the engine to the wheels and for a manual about an 18% loss. If you made 250 wheel hp in an automatic car you should be around 305 hp at the engine.

Does wheal weight effect horsepower?

No wheel weights control tire balance and have nothing to do with horsepower. The horsepower your engine produces is entirely produced by the engine. You can get better use of that horsepower by limiting the amount of weight of your vehicle but leave the wheel weights on the wheels or you'll be riding a bucking bronco while your trying to drive.

What is the difference between horsepower to the crank and wheel?

Horsepower to the crank refers to the power output of the engine before it reaches the drivetrain, while horsepower to the wheel is the power that is actually transmitted to the wheels after losses in the drivetrain. Horsepower to the wheel is typically lower than to the crank due to power losses from the transmission, differential, and other components.


How do you convert engine liters to horsepower?

"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.

What is the difference between brake horsepower and horsepower?

The difference between brake horsepower and horsepower or wheel horsepower, they are the same thing, is that brake horse power is the power produced by the crank. The wheel horsepower is the amount of power delivered to the wheels. Brake horsepower refers to the method used to test the engine. A brake is attached to the engine and used to maintain the engine at a constant RPM at full throttle. The delivered power output is then a simple calculation of RPM times torque. Horse power is based on the average amount of work that a horse could do in a day. It is taken to be 746watts. well you guessed it engine output is also specified in kilowatts so divide by 746 and you have horsepower. As stated above it is all the same thing. There is a difference between advertised horsepower and brake horsepower. Advertised horsepower is what a manufacturer will rate its engine/automobile/machine to produce. Brake horsepower is the actual measured horsepower, for example, of a motor on an engine dynamometer.


What does 1100 cc equal in horsepower?

It is not possible to directly convert engine displacement (measured in cc) to horsepower. Horsepower is influenced by various factors such as engine efficiency, fuel type, and design. Generally, a 1100 cc engine might produce anywhere from 50 to 150 horsepower, depending on these factors.
