what makes torque? SPEAK OUT! 120-130 1965

OK, something to liven up the BB. I just tried a crosspost, but it didn't show up here. In any case...

Anyone know the relationship of torque and horsepower? Specifically what increases torque?

I would guess something regarding rotating mass, friction, levers used (crankshaft and connecting rods), plus some Elfin Magic.

Anyone have something to say about this? It'll give me something to consider as I wait for my money tree to grow back. (The 122 has been hungry)
