Yesterday's QOTD was a really good one for multiple reasons. One of the many topics discussed was power vs. torque, a concept still not that well understood by petrolheads. To radically simplify the ...

The equation tells us that at 3,000 rpm it would produce 228 hp. But if the engine made 400 lb-ft at 6,000 rpm, it would produce 457 hp. It's true that doubling the torque output to 800 lb-ft at 3,000 ...

torque is a force. horsepower is the rate at which the engine does work. Really, all the engine's peak torque, and the RPM at which it produces it tells you is the general operating characteristics of ...

Most electric cars aren't normally associated with performance, but they are able to achieve something gasoline-powered cars can't: peak torque at zero rpm. It's thrown around often, and many will ...

These cars prove that boost is the displacement replacement torque lovers need.

During a recent conversation with an experienced engine builder I realized we'd not recently discussed the importance of, reasons why and areas of concern about proper engine component integration.

The highest torque diesel engines ever made have turned up in everything from small commercial vehicles to powerful locomotives to mining equipment and more.
