Torque Vs Horsepower explained by Hudson Engineer

A few years ago on Youtube there was a Hudson film with one of their engineers explaining torque and horsepower. I cannot find it any longer. Does anyone still have a link to this video?

Thanks

I remember seeing this video and have also been trying to locate it. If I recall, an engineer was walking through why low-end torque from a Hudson flathead is more valuable for quick takeoff than a higher horsepower V8.

I thought it was a retail sales building program of some kind. I'll see if I can dig it up. I don't seem to have it bookmarked.

This may have been what I was thinking of. I could have sworn what I watched was a film reel of an engineer talking to the camera, not this slideshow. But maybe this is what you were looking for. It came from a Hudson retail sales building collection I got at an HET meet on DVDs.

This may be the video I was thinking of, but I am not sure. I believe the one I saw had a Hudson Engineer at a black board providing detailed analysis of torque and HP? Maybe my memory is a little fuzy on it?

You're correct, I remember the chalkboard and engineer as well. I did some sleuthing and found your post from a couple years back which I think is where I first saw it. https://openforum.hetclub.org/discussion/367870/hudson-engineer-teaches-a-lesson-on-torque-and-hp

I did some digging on that YouTube link and I think it was this video:

Unfortunately, it's been removed from YouTube and I can't find a backup. The channel is still up but has no content. I found the channel's email address and wrote to the owner. If I get a response I'll post back here.
