Horsepower cannot be converted to cc, because hp is a unit of power and cc (cubic centimeters) is a unit of volume. You can read about horsepower at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower.

You can convert cubic inches (ci) to cc. One cubic inch is equal to about 16.4 cc. Put another way, one liter (1000 cc) is equal to about 61 ci. So a five-liter engine in a car has about 305 ci of volume in its cylinders. But one 5-liter engine can put out horsepower that is different from another 5-liter engine.

For example, the Ford Mustang 5.0 V8 engine is actually 4.6 liters, and it is rated at 300 hp. Ford has also used a 4.6 liter V8 engine in trucks, and it is rated at just 231 hp.
