Whats the weight difference between a Ford AOD transmission and a FMX tranmission?
116672
believe it or not, the AOD is lighter by 10-15 pounds than the FMX.  the AOD utilizes much newer and lighter materials.

Are you fixing a 1987 Mazda RX-7?  Hehe...  I really am curious to know what this conversion is for...  Is your lawnmower on the fritz?  Hehe.  \n\nFirst off, let me ask you if the unit bearing measurements in KMPH or KPH has any sort of "tachometer" on it...  Some tachometers show both KMPH and RPMS, but others don't.  If you're in a situation where your tach doesn't have one, uh....  You're probably gonna need to check with the Autoguru.  \n\nAccording to him, to calculate your RPMs, you must do the following:  \n\n1) If your Road Wheel diameter is 'D' meters, then its circumference would be '^D' ( using ^ as a symbol for 'pi'=3.14). \n\n2) Assume you are cruising in IV gear @ 60 kph and the Car has a 'final drive'/FDR ratio of 4:1 and the IV gear ratio/TGR of 0.9:1. \n\n3) Then the # of revolutions 'per minute' the Road wheel would make would be = 60/60 x 1000/3.14 x D. \n\n(Assuming 'D' to be = 0.50 meters, it'd be = 636.94 rpm. The figure of '1000' comes in to convert 'kph' into 'mph' and '60' to convert hrs into minutes.  [*That's the Metric System at work, for ya, kids!]) \n\n4) To get the Engine rpm now, we multiply 636.94 x FDR x TGR or 636.94 x 4 x 0 .9 which = 2293 rpm. \n\n5) For E-Rpm in any other gear, '0.9' would have to be replaced by the drive ratio of that gear viz 1.33 for III and so on.\n\nThis is pretty close to the real life example of a Maruti 800, which when "tacho'd" does 80 kph/~3000 rpm!\n\nI hope this helps you!  Good luck!

There isn';t a truck on the planet tougher than a Ford. People can say whatever they want but what it comes down to is how long will it last. The Ford is more rigid, stiffer, quieter, tows more, has more torque than anything else. I have to LMAO at Honda and Toyota truck buyers, wow are you people stupid. The Ford truck has a fully boxed frame, the only other truck that has a fully boxed frame is a Dodge. Dodges also have transmission problems, see consumer reports. Bottom line is, if your going to buy a truck, buy a FORD. Ford also has a better resale value.

with the 3.73 you will have slower off the line take off but more top speed and the 4.10 will give you better acceleration off the line but a little less top end you will probably get better gas mileage from the 3.73  the 3.73 is numerically smaller but physically taller than the 4.10. with either gear you will need good tires or they might spin on take off depending on how much power you have

:You have to call fedx and tell them what it is how much it weighs where it is being shipped from and where to.  They should be able to tell you.  Don't forget you most likely will have to pay import duty on it.  If it is something very special it may be worth it.  If it is something you want to resell I doubt if you could compete.

This means matching the engine speed before gear engagement to the engine speed after gear engagement, when switching gears.\n\nThere's no point to it other than smoothness, or if you want to power shift (for example shift from 4th to 5th without using the clutch).\n\n---\n\nNo, it might increase wear because of longer clutch engagement.\n\nI'm not sure what you mean by momentum.\n\nRev matching will be required in a dog box transmission, but has no benefit in a standard transmission which has synchronizers (synchros) to mechanically match the revolutions for you. That includes basically every transmission built in the last 20 years.

AM General makes the Hum Vee and the cost of making it IED proof can exceed $215,000.000, or more than four times the original per unit cost of the vehicle. Armor is heavy and the vehicle was never designed to carry that kind of weight, so extensive modifications have to be done to the frame and suspension in order to carry the extra weight. This makes them handle differently and shortens the life span of the vehicle fro the normal 2-4 years to as little as nine months.

busch lighter car about 500 hp nextel weigh more and push ~800 hp

The 150 is a bigger vehicle and is stronger.

power to weight ratio = power/weight.\n\nIn quoting it, you must give the units, e.g.\nhorsepower per ton, watts per pound, kilowatts per kilogram...

Its 15 foot pounds. See  www.autozone.com  , repair info\nLook under driven disc and pressure plate.\n  150'lbs will snap the bolts off

Torque is less of an issue when racing because you are always running the engine at high revs. I raced stock Fords here in England and the revs were always between 4500 and 7000, even 4500 was quite unusual.\n\ni would normally take power to weight over torque to weight any day.  Weight works against any race car as it strains everything, tyres, brakes, etc.\n\nAlmost certainly in a race there would be other deciding issues such as set up (camber, toeing, etc)

None. It takes no power to maintain that speed (on level ground, no friction). The object has kinetic energy (0.5 * m * v^2). Power was required to put it in motion and power can be recovered by decelerating it. If you do the math, the energy is 3551.86 ft-lb, equivalent to 1 horsepower for 6.458 seconds. Answer 1 neglected the fact that weight must be converted to mass by dividing by g, and energy is proportional to v^2.

It depends how big the truck is

Check with your local AAFES store.  Auto manufacturers used to give some pretty good deals to returning troops through the post exchange. Don't know if they still do, but it's a place to start.

It would depend on the amount of Helium within the truck.\n\nJust because Helium is lighter (less dense) than air does not mean that it does not have mass (and thus weight).\nFor a given volume of Helium and air at the same pressure, the Helium would have less mass.  However, if one pressurized the Helium and/or had enough moles of the gas, one could actually be increasing the overall weight of the car by adding the Helium.\nIn orer to lighten the car, the idea would be to displace the surrounding "fluid" (air) but at the same time, by adding as little additional mass as possibe.\n\nAny effects of Helium upon the overall weight of the vehicle will be totally negligible using any normal amount of Helium.  One would need a small blimp's worth of Helium to have any real effect.

That is way, way too heavy for a carrier. Why don't you just get a small trailer and use the tow package for what it was designed to do.....tow things. Put your suitcases on a rack. Bye the way..... the Ford was a good choice.
