1000 ftlb torques club
 

Since there was a thread regarding 1000bhp, lets have one to see who has the most torque.

This is going to take some time for someone with over 1000 ftlb total to come up.


Edit: I take that back. Quite a few already

785

well. if u add my old mans busted ass jeep then its 1005. lol

I think a car with 1000 ft-lbs torque is extremely rare here.

^ i know a dude that had a diesel f-350 that was chipped and stuff that made over 1000 ft lbs of torque easily. that fucker flew. till it got stolen and chopped. lmao

I doubt the chassis could handle that much torque. Probably cracked every corner of the truck whenever he stepped on the peddle.......

I win ... Got 09 VN670 ISX 500 - 500hp 1850tq...I win...close the thread lol!

Ford L8000 - 650
GMC Envoy - 275
Honda Civic - 128
Total = 1053

02 Trans am 350
06 BMW X3 220
05 smart 75
88 300zx 180
65 sunbeam tiger 300 give or take 10
95 993 250

1375 total including all the cars in my family

"... so much torque, the chassis twisted coming off the line"

i hope you're joking.

A chipped 335d engine makes +500ft/lb of torques.

Considering they come with like 600 lbs of torque and can tow like 20,000 lbs I dont think that would ever be an issue

do you even know what your talking about? or is the only time you ever saw torque was in fast and the furious?

my buddy sittin next to me right now has a couple pete 379's with cat c15 motors with about 625hp and 1850tq. thank god u got that cummins tho. fucking detroit's lick balls.

I was REFERRING to fast and the furious. =_=

bmw twin turbo 2.0L diesel makes 201 hp and 295 tq. pretty amazing, i think.
whats the 335d? 425 tq. damn.. with a shorter final drive, it'd be making same 0-60mph as the gas burner.

There are hundreds of models of cars and trucks some with 1000lbs of torque, hell my V8 Fiero makes 320lbs before it hits 2500rpms. Which is nearly double the OEM rating of 170lbs. The turbo I have in my garage came from a Detroit Diesel Tractor Trailer engine. If I install it, with any luck, I can get it A. downstream that heat won't be an issue, and B. have enough lag that WON'T spool until over 3500rpms. I actually wish I could lose some of my torque at low rpms. This is too far off topic, lets do the match

Mine
170 flbs 88 Pontiac Fiero V6
320 flbs 857 Pontiac Fiero V8

Wifes
300 86 Pontiac Fiero V8
170lbs 85 Pontiac Fiero V6

Ours
260lbs 96 Chevy Blazer 4wd 4.3 V6


If my math is right 1220 lbs.

None of this was with "power adders"

If you include the nitrous, which is not installed at the moment you can add 400lbs to the list between the 2 V8 Fieros.

you need like 8 hondas econoboxes combined for this competition

You and your wife EACH have 2 Fieros? thats crazy.. you're definitely made for each other!

even that doesnt put out 1000 ftlbs, it doesnt even make 300 hp, most of the buses are speced to around 250hp, depending on what routes they run, most buses run a 4 cylinder detroit series 50, bascially a 4 cylinder version of the series 60, they are just starting to switch of to the cummins isc 6 cylinder i believe

So how many ftlbs does it pump out?

yeah...i like cat to but they suck more diesel... i had detroit before the SHITTIEST engine ever!!!!


It's ST btw...
