4.9999999998 ft-lbs or 6.779089998 Newton-Metres. (Nearly as close, just divide the inches by the number of inches in a foot which is 12

)

Kev is right

Way Way to complicated.............. 12" in 1 foot divide the lbs" by 12=lbsft

there's no automotive torque wrench that will be accurate at decimels so why bother, the best snap on deal is +/-1% if you're lucky most are a minimum of 3% +/-

Just a wild guess....but would it be divide the inches by 12?

I think you might be on to something there Dave!

I normally use this method, tighten until it shears off and then back off one turn......
