107.67 lb/ft is ample if your car weighs not much more than a crisp bag, but Clare,
did you not think to Google for" conversion tables" ?
S**t loads of results
Or..... are you trying to up your post count to get access to the so called "shop"

Thats pretty feeble for a V6 (and i'd be gutted if i got that from a 1.8 Zetec!!) My 2L zetec gave 173bhp / 161lb ft.
You have a 2.5 V6 Claire?? Something is seriously wrong there if you only get those figures!!! I'd expect way over 200lb ft

It's only a 1.8 V6 , odd thing is it feels like it has loads of torque ?
The main reason for the lack of torque is that is'nt that well set up - ignition timing is no where near advanced enough at full throttle/high
revs (no something I have been able to check without a rolling road
I did spend ten minutes on Google searching - but couldn't find what I was looking for - and nothing on there about how to get into the shop
either
