lb/hr ~> cc/min conversion
what's the formula to convert cc/min to lbs/hr? I'm trying to get a pair of 550cc injectors, and the only people I know that can get injectors, need to know the lbs/hr. THX

Or go here and punch in the numbers (I used 10.5; is 10.6 more accurate?):

hmmm...
1 gallon of gasoline = 6 lbs.
60 minutes = 1 hour
1 gallon = 3.7854 liters
1000 cc = 1 liter
lb/hour = (gallon/6lbs)(3.7854 liters/gallon)(1000cc/liter)(hour/60 minutes) = 10.515
Looks like 10.5 is a little closer than 10.6
I dunno why I remember the 10.6.  The 1 gallon/6 lbs. conversion is rather crude, as gasoline mass changes with content and octane.  I usually just knock off a zero from the cc/min rating anyways.
