converting the units of an equation

I have an equation, which has to do with a weir and flow rates, Q=288.8LH^(3/2) where Q is the discharge rate (gal/hr.), L is the lenth of the weir opening (inches), and H is the height of fluid (inches). How do I find a new constant if I changed Q to (cubic feet/sec.), and L and H to feet? Thank your for your time and I appreciate it.
