Default Re: Mopar To Release Lost A-Body 1/4 Mile Test Results

P-F Flyer,
The 1967 Barracuda 383/280HP results,
Fastback weight (#3202 lbs.)
The car was only available with the 3,23 Sure-Grip Posi rear.
Front disc brakes were part of the Formula 'S' Package, on the 67' Cuda 383.
As well as the little D-70 x 14" tires (6.00" width x 25.75" tall) on 5.5" rims.

4-speed; 14.81 @ 93 mph
Automatic; 15.11 @ 91 mph

* Besides the factory results, I think it was Popular Science who compared both the 67' 383/280HP Cuda fastback 4-speed w/3.23 gears,
and the 67' Pontiac Firebird convertible with 400/325HP 4-speed w/3.55 gears. The magazine (March 1967) also said, the Cuda was quicker.
