See post #2, but it only explains why this question has no answer.

You can convert engine size easily on the volume conversion page.

8.1 liter is about 494 cubic inch

what you are asking is not liters to horsepower but liters to cid. right? ok a stock 4.3 in a s10 has a cid. of 262 and horsepower rating of 165. hope this helps. (show_blazer@yahoo.com)

converting liters to cubic inches can be done by multiplying the liters x 61 ...ex: 6.0 liters x 61 = 366 cubic inches - kinda fun to convert old engine sizes to liters as well - just divide the engine size by 61 - so a 409 (she's real fine) would convert to 6.7 litre or a 427 coverts to 7 litres. 289 mustang 4.7 litres. make sense?

How do you convert 3 liters to horsepower for a boat engine?

You cant convert that directly.
