or can you work out cfm from x2 2400 motors?

Where does this "metres per hour" measurement come from?  Technical specs of a machine from a supplier's brochure?

Presuming it's cubic metres per hour, the conversion is dead simple.... Convert m³ into ft³ and divide by 60

340m³/hr = roughly 200ft³/min (200 cfm)

Considering a standard 3-stage vac motor pulls about 100cfm in open flow, that sounds about the right stated airflow for a twin vac machine configured in parallel.  If that's what you mean?

Gimme a shout when you want your car washing, I'll come round and do that as well :)
