I need to tourque my cam caps to 12 FT. pounds . Problem- half in. drive wrench wont go that low. I have a IN .pounds torque wrench also . My question is does 120 inch pounds = 12 foot pounds? Or am I way off kilter?

1 foot lb. =12"lbs........12"lbs=1 foot lb.

So 12x12=144" lbs.

or say you wanted to convert 200"lbs to ft. lbs.

200/12=16.7ft.' lbs.

To convert Foot-Pounds to Inch-Pounds. Multiply by 12.
12 Foot-Pounds = 144 Inch-pounds.
