Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - Camaro Torsional Stiffness Across the Model Range

I've seen some torsional and bending stiffness-related numbers for the 5th gen, except that they were in Hz instead of lb/in or in*lb/deg.

18 Hz (torsional, dynamic), 21 Hz (bending, dynamic), referenced back to wardsauto.com from a compilation of car body stiffnesses.

If this question gets picked and the answer is also provided in Hz, it'd be nice if a correlation from frequency units to stiffness units could be provided as well.
