On small engines, are CC's and horsepower always related in the same ratio? I know on large engines they are not but I wasn't sure about mower size engines.
I have one of those 4x4 Japanese mini pickups that I use every day on the farm. It has a two cylinder water cooled 547 CC engine and a four speed transmission. It will run 60 miles an hour down the road and haul 1000 pounds in the back. It seems very strong for such a little engine (and I think it is pretty high geared). My big ZTR has an 18 horse twin Briggs which is just shy of 700 CC's. So is the little pickup equivalent to 16 or so horsepower? Everything on it is written in Japanese but I'm not sure it would say anyway. Just curious.
