Not sure what you are trying to say about the "Cuda" name? It first appeared on a 1969 Barracuda as an option package with it spelled out on the front fender with twin scoops on the hood and a special black out stripe package. So the Cuda was a 69 car which was not an E Body but an A Body. Just my 2 cents
Here is a picture of BB Daves M Code 440 Cuda'
