Horsepower is a term that can not be determined by only looking at the number of a cc's that an engine has. Horsepower is a number that is obtained when a vehicle is put on a dyno machine (a machine that measures horsepower/torque... etc) but is related to the engine size (number of cc's) as well as by the transmission that a vehicle has (i.e. the number of gears as well as gear ratios for each) amongst other factors.
Interestingly enough, horsepower is also a term that in and of itself is not indicitive of the amount of power that a vehicle might have. It must be combined with the amount of torque associated with such vehicle in order for it to be a term that truly represents the amount of power that a vehicle has.

If you're talking about a vehicle then 3000cc in other words would be a 3.0 litter engine which would easily fall under the 6 cylinder category.. I don't know the way to know how much horse power that is but if youre talking about a certain car's engine maybe you can look it up on a search engine under the cars model/year/power train specs.....

Zero,cc(cubic centimeters) is a volume of measurement,not horse power

it's about this: cc/10 * .5= hp (don't know the exact fraction tho)
