Chrysler produced the AAR model for one year only to compete on the SCAA road race circuit and challenge Ford's BOSS 302 Mustang and Chevy's Z/28 Camaro. AARstands for All American Race, and there were only AAR Cudas 2,724 ever built(built during the March-April 1970 production runs). The production AAR 'Cuda was visually altered from the regular E-body Barracuda with unique 'strobe' stripes that held the AAR 'Cuda logo and a fiberglass hood that actually took in fresh air. It also had front eyebrow spoilers and a rear duck tail spoiler. Unlike the standard Barracuda, the AAR's exhaust came out the sides near the back wheels. Under the hood, the AAR had Chrysler's Six-Pack 340ci engine that was unique to this model and the Dodge Challenger T/A. This version of the 340 differed from a production 340 in many ways including a 3x2 Holley carb set-up, thicker main bearings webs and a set of new 360 'J-Heads' with 2.02/1.60 valves. In a way, it was a kind-of a 'small-block hemi' - it could really breathe. The motor was factory rated at 290hp. However, the de-stroked 305ci track version put out 440hp, which leads one to believe that the factory rating may have been a bit conservative.Power is delivered to a 3.55:1 posi-traction differential by a bulletproof Chrysler 727 3-speed Torqueflite.
This is one nice MOPAR. Please call Paul at 248-573-5013 if you should have any questions.
