First off, peak and continuous ratings are different - you can't
"convert" between them. The peak ratings are usually 4-5 times the
continuous, so if you have a peak value only, divide by 5 to get the
(conservative) continuous rating.

Other than that, one foot pound is easy to convert to ounce inches:
convert feet to inches by multiplying by 12 (12 inches per foot),
convert pounds to ounces by multiplying by 16 (16 ounces per pound). So,
one foot-pound is 12*16 or 192 ounce-inches.
