that's just how the math works...

 

Hp is a derivitive of torque. Given by the formula: HP = (Torque*rpm)/5252
Hence, at 5252 rpm the hp and torque numbers will be equal.

 

HEEHE..... for SGT, on a roll man.

 

Good job!

For round two, what are the two technical names for the inner and outer CV joints used in all Hondas?

 

what the hell is this? honda-tech exams?

 

as per the honda service manual section 16 they are the inboard and outboard joints

 

I like joints.

 

plunge or tripod and rzeppa?

 

only on dyno graphs that share equal numbers on each side

 

We have a winner! And for the bonus, how do you pronounce "rzeppa?"

 

"plunge or tripod and rzeppa"
Damn, I wonder where the those names came from? I would think it would be much easier to just call them CV joints... but what do I know?

While everyone is off-topic;
Hey "Fixhondas", if you're hanging around, check out my post titled "Porting B18C1 head - what the hell is the indentation?". I'm dying to know what's up with that & I'd bet you have the answer...

 

Plunging tripod is self explainitory if you took it apart. It's got three yokes that plung in and out of the outer race (it needs to do this when the wheel goes up and down because the axle changes length). It's not a CV (constant velocity) joint because at high angles, it will have a pulsing power delivery like a U- joint. The Rzeppa joint is called so because it was invtented by Alfred Rzeppa, who worked at Ford in the 20's.

 

 

haha. Good call.
