What is the curb weight of a 67 Nochback Barracuda? Also what 1/4 mile time should I expect from a stock setup or just the super six upgrade? One more thing. Does anyone know the CDA of this car?

What kind of gears do yoou have? I turned a best of 19.17 with my Duster which ways 3300 pounds, has 2.76 gears, super six, 2 1/4 exhaust and every thing else stock. I am about to do distributor recurve which will hopefully get me into the 18's.

Tell us some more specifics about your car in order to give you a more accurate estimate. Slant Cecil turned 18's in his bone stock 66 Valiant.

ratio 2.76.
Do you know the CDA (drag coefficient) for this car?

It would not surprise me to see a stock notchback run mid 18's. 67 notches were pretty much the lightest 67-76 A body made.

CDA is probably not that good with the big, flat grille and notch window. :shock:

Yeah, I agree. You will probably see 17- 18 second times with a Supersix and a tweaked distributor. It might run that with a 1-barrel. Cecil did it with his Valiant. All depends on your state of tune.

Make sure that your throttle blade is opening all the way. Most factory cars I have seen only open about 80% stock. May have to do some adjusting.
