John F-L ----- Original Message ----- From: Pat Naughtin To: U.S. Metric Association Sent: Monday, December 13, 2010 8:32 AM Subject: [USMA:49176] Dodge Challenger Dear All, As you know to measure the approximately 10 000 parts for this car accurately and precisely, you will need about 100 000 individual measurements. http://motorcitytimes.com/mct/2010/12/2011-dodge-challenger-392-hemi Most of these will be done using millimetres. The capacity of the cylinders had been calculated, designed, and manufactured as 6.1 litres but recently this capacity has been expanded to 6.4 litres. And the petrol-heads can't stand it! Where's my "anti-metric" conversion chart?
