Gonna be shopping for a torque wrench and noticed that most are rated in ft-lbs and m-kgs, but Bentley gives N-m. If my old thermodynamics book is right, 1 N-m = 0.7376 ft-lb(force). So what's a good range torque wrench to get and where to get it? I'll be putting a JC Whitney order together anyway; are any of theirs worth getting? -Karl Karl F.
