And A body cars were rated less the others with same engine, because of the crappy exhaust manifolds, like Mitch stated.

Yes, I speaking specifically about the A body..

The 4 speed makes it rarer.

1619 auto transmissions made.

There has been a lot of conflicting info on this subject. Mostly because of the restrictive exhaust manifolds. I think the 67"s were more restrictive than the 68's. Thats why most 68's are rated higher HP......

You are right. It was the driver's side they had problems with which is why in 67 they only got a half year of productions for the 383 Barracuda's.
Engineering changes in 68 bumped the HP up over 300.

Thanks. Bring it to Carlisle I would love to look at that.

No problem.

Charger 273 I usually call the Charger 273's "HP 273" to avoid confusion.

I open the hood on a '70ish Camaro to check the oil, when gas stations did that kinda stuff, "That's a 4 cylinder!" I called my coworker over to verify that I was not seeing things. When I removed the gas nozzle and replaced the cap under the plate "British Columbia" says the plate.
