Best motor for 69 Barracuda

i'm sorry, but i'm gonna say it. 300 hp is a piece of cake with an 8:1 compression 318. If 300 hp is truly what you want, the 318 will do it easily. Or, put in the big block you are dreaming about.

318 is practicly a throw away to many get them cheap if all your looking for is 300hp
