Title says it all really: have looked at the conversion sites I know, but this one was not included.

Anyone got the correct formula ?

TIA

Hi Theo

The answer is easy. Take your Nm figure and divide it by 0.74.

to convert Nm to lbs/ft you multiply by 0.74

PS U see I know something about engineering as well apart from waxes and mobile dog parlours

Hey thanks WoW !

So that would put my MY99 car at about 260 lbs/ft then.

BTW, we will be in the UK on 4 and 5 November, Cheltemham (Powerstation area): any change of meeting you up there ? If not, we defo have to meet again next year !

PS: got a nice compliment from Mr. Blitz. He saw my car at the Ring, and - without asking - commented on the nice shine my car had. When I told him the last wax was done in August (just before our meet) he was truly impressed. When I told him it was WW stuff, he replied "oh, so it really works then ..." Can't get better referals than that mate.

PS2: dog parlours... you can probably not imagine how funny that scene was with the dog. Oh, why didn't I have a camera there and then http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

Use a "babylon" this way you can change KW to HP, NM to Kg-M or whatever you want.
this is what I do every time I go to OZs sites.
cheers.
