Take a 6 odd litre V8 producing say 300kWb on gasoline. Apply a derate for straight hydrogen (say 75%) for knock margin, and you're looking for 75kWb. Apply a conservative efficiency (say 20%), and you're looking for something like 375kWth of fuel energy. The LHV of hydrogen is 121MJ/kg.
I'm sure you can do the maths from here...
