Back in the mid 70's, I hada 65 barracuda, 273 .060 over, built full race, professionally, dyno'd @ 422 hp, ran that little car to 12 flats on pump gas.
Tranny was 4 speed offa a 392 hemi car, rear was a ford 9" with 4.11's and "limited slip"(not my choice, bought it that way).
Car was a ***** to drive in traffic, plugs loading up fast, but was really fun when you pushed down on that pedal!!!!!!
Damn, I wish I had that car back now!!!!
Oh, and 3pmg city, 18 mpg on the highway, I drove it from Mississippi to
Pittsburgh in December of 1974 and lost the starter in Jackson Mississippi, and this was not a car you could start down a hill and catch it in gear to start it, even in third gear, the rear tires would lock from the compression.
