let see.. 39 inches in a meter so thats like 3.3333 ft/m
4.45 newtons/lb

.3 m/ft
1.335 n-m/ft-lb

40.05 n-m

360 inch-lbs.

of course, the newton-meter conversion is off things memorized in high school 6 years ago, so i don't know how far to trust them.

Damn americans and their foot lbs are corrupting our youth.

The correct unit is the Joule!


As in, how many Joules of torque does this engine have?

30 ft-lbs is how many inch-pounds or netwon-meters
(30 feet)/(1 lb)
x (12 inches)/(1 foot)
= 360 inch-pounds
