5.7L Hemi, 1968 Barracuda.. Opinions.

great looking cuda hemijoejr!

still trying to make up my mind and i agree with both sydcuda and fishy.. 408 stroker wouldnt definately be cheaper and more time effecient, hemi would take some time and unfortunately more money.. how much hp is that thing throwing out hemijoe?

i think i might make building that hemi and getting things ready a secondary project and get a 408 stroker built sooner than later. especially since i can bolt that thing right in! thanks for the advice guys and ill let you know what happens!


It should be around 500hp. Still a 5.7L, I didn't srtoke it. I ran a best of 12.60 @ 110.8 with an awfull 2.07 60' time. 3600lb car w me in it. I ony had the car to the track twice so I have alot of tuning to go. I'm shootin for high 11s next year after my torque converter change.8)

Check out my build pics.

And yes I absolutely agree about the stroker motor being the cheapest way with the most power. I was lookin to be different.
