But on just about any full linux distro under your roof, you have:
$ units
You have: 3 N m
You want: lbf in
* 26.552237
/ 0.03766161
The first is the forward conversion, the second is the reciprocal.
(Use "units -1" if that's annoying.)

Most of the advertisements seem to be in oz-in, so to "imperialise", I'd:
You have: 3 N m
You want: ozf in
Unknown unit 'ozf'
You want: oz force in
* 424.8358
/ 0.0023538506
Ah, now, that's substantial, in the size range I tend to look at.

P.S. As a side issue, I couldn't remember the imperial g, but:
You have: gravity
You want: ft/s^2
* 32.174049
/ 0.03108095
Yes, now I remember using 32, back as a schoolkid, before we went
metric.
