Gadget,
Again you have to refer to the tables for output power as related to RPM on the motors in question. There is a conversion factor, Watts x 0.001341 = Horsepower. This will allow you to convert from watts to horsepower. You can find more conversions at http://www.watb.net/info/c_factor/power.shtml
