Answer 1

You can go to this site and see if you can calculate your horsepower.

Since the rpms will vary with speed, your horsepower will vary as well, so you need a dyno to see what your hp is in each gear.

Hope this helps,

Answer 2

Horse power is a ratio.  To find it simply use the following prosses:

first you need a horse and a pair of latex gloves-

Next grab the horses balls and allow it to kick.  Then grab the engines balls (if it has any) and compare.  If the engine did not kick, it's a pile of c**p, like the horse pobably just let out.

Used this process on the farm

Answer 3

only way to do it is to put it in the dyno and have it tested...

Answer 4

You can't, and I have always wanted to do this.

You need to go to a chassis dyno, or dynamometer.
