440ci for 73' Barracuda
Last evening we assembled the 440ci engine for a customers 73' Barracuda. Engine got a standard performance job. SpeedPro forged, coated 060 over pistons for a 9.5 to 1 static compression ratio. Pocket ported 452 heads with 2.14, 1.81 stainless valves, new valvetrain and pushrods. First time I use not a proven camshaft design and opted for a new hydraulic grind from CompCams. Named Xtreme Energy XE274H 230/236@50 110LSA 488/491 lift. Should be good for lumpy idle and at least 400nethp with 1 3/4 headers. Intake will be dualplane M1 with 750cfm 3310 Holley and half inch spacer. Completion next week.
