A LITTLE 1965 BARACUDA FORMULA "S" HISTORY:
For 1965, Plymouth upped their game and made a competition Barracuda package available on November, '64 called the Formula S Competition Package. It was actually set up for specific kinds of events; rallies and road races. That's right, the Formula S was a sports car oriented deal, albeit American style with a rather large V8 up front instead of a high revving DOHC cammed inline six. This set up the Barracuda for a very interesting career in sports and ironically blocked any serious full development of the model for muscle car fame during the early part of the decade. The Formula S package with rally enhancements came from development with noted driver, Scott Harvey in 1962.
The Formula S package was issued in the standard Barracuda body with these parts; Commando 273 V8 with new, Carter AFB four barrel carb and intake. Rallye Suspension package of heavy duty torsion bars, leaf springs and sway bar, 14 inch by 51/2 wide wheels and shod with Goodyear Bluestreak tires, tachometer, and sports style wheel covers. The car body was adorned with race stripes going over the roof, trunk lid and hood in the center. The engine got a few dress up goodies like a chrome plated air cleaner with vivid pie pan with engine callout. Finned black crackle finished valve covers and discreet circular Formula S medallions were attached to the front of the fenders. The Commando 233 had 235 horsepower and ran 10.50:1 compression pistons with high lift solid cam. It was a pretty serious package. For transmissions you either chose a Hurst shifted four speed floor job or got an automatic console three speed automatic. Final drive wasn't really drag race material with 3.55 being the lowest offering and most were 3.23 or 2.93 ratios. It was a road race and rally package.
