Can anyone out there explain why an engine's max torque and max horsepower don't occur at the same RPM?
Also, what makes an engine more "torquey"? I saw a Hummer H1 the other day and I learned that although it only has 194 HP, it has over 400 lb-ft or torque. I guess I should have studied mechanical rather than electrical engineering![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
