If an old snowthrower with a 13 hp Briggs engine is 350cc, then a new
350cc Briggs powered snow blower will be about the same HP.


B & S is using the foot pounds from what I've seen. an 8.5 ft lb is 6.5
hp 11.5 = 7.5 hp 15.5 = 11 hp

This is the most useful of the information supplied so far. I am going to
make note of the ft lbs/hp ratios as the foot pound rating is the most
popular of the ratings around here. The displacement ratings are almost
useless in my opinion.

Thank you.
