I made a foolish bet against this person who has an electric 1000 HP series wound motor. I told him for $500 bet that my 1000 HP 540 CID big block engine would make his weakly electric motor smoke if we connected the shafts together. So we shaked hands on the bet. So I said give me a few weeks to build my engine, so he said sure. Well just out of curosity I looked up the specs on his electric motor and what I found has me shaking in my knees. His beast has over 4000 foot-pounds of torque!!!!! Here is the link
to his motor specs. So my fellow gear heads just how on earth do I get 4000 foot-pounds of torque out of my engine?
