The Prodrive rally cars are quoted in KG/M figures, that equates to around 405lbs ft, id have to find the exact figure though but it was a similar figure to the 67 you gave (but in metres).
So closest you can get is (not knowing the figure for m/ft conversion so guess at 3) is:-
67x2.2x3=

In rough terms, and off the top of my head, 2.2 lb = 1 Kg, 3.25 ft = 1M. Therefore 1Kgm = 2.2*3.25 = 7.15 lbft. So that's your conversion figure. I'm sure I could come up with a more accurate number if I looked something up.
7.15*67 is ~480lbft (I assume JB came up with an accurate conversion, so my numbers are close enough for me). Plenty adequate torque, anyway

3.28ft = 1m But if we want to be pedants we should work to 4 sig figs to get 3 for the result Adequate torque, quite agree, unless it is a diesel, then it is borderline
