torque
i have a question about torque
i calculated from my rw torque(450nm)that my flywheel torque would be about 620nm does this sound too high? or have a got it wrong? |
620 sounds wayyy too high to me mate.
I think you loose about 20 - 25% in the gear train, so that puts you mid 500. Craig would have a better idea...he's had more dyno pulls than most of us and would be well versed on that subject :JEKYLHYDE You all take care |
347 - I'm sorry, but I don't know a whole lot about chassis dynos. Which brand of dyno can give you such a torque figure? I thought that they could only give you a "Tractive effort" reading - somewhere around 5,500.....
Anyway, 620nm = 450+lb/ft torque. That sounds a little high for your engine combo. If you were running more compression and more camshaft, I could see 450. I'd guess that you'd be around 380lb/ft = 515nm. As is, it sounds like you have a nice combo that's making enough power to get you into trouble out on the roads. ;) Craig |
