Not an equal comparison.

The 1966 327/350 HP 'L-79' would be too much for the 1967 '383-S'.

Regarding the 1967 Barracuda '383-S'.

The early Sales Brochure states that >

{Optional Gears} 3.55 and 3.91 were available for the 4-Speed.

3.55 Gears were available as an 'option' for the Automatic.

So by unfair comparison you mean one where the Mopar loses? Look I love Mopars but there is a reason they sold 5000+ L79s that year. They were cheap and they were big block killers. They put that car in the 426 Hemi's NHRA class. The magazine test was actually poor with only a 15.1 but I think the people knew better. They are pretty stinking valuable today as well even though not uncommon.
