Default Re: Neat link for torque (tools) calculators>>>

I don't build engines anymore so all I care about is lug nuts being torqued reasonably close to spec. And then I see the clods at Disgusting Tire using a torque wrench, hearing it click, and continuing to twist as hard as they can. But the worst part was putting my wife's 91 on a platform jack like they do with the C5s. Luckily the plastic floor pans were sturdy enough to survive.
