Musclecars That Should Have Been Made

M68,
I like your choices.
The 70 A-Body cars should have been ready for a 440.
My personal favorite/wish. My 69' 440 Cuda.
But, with 11.5 pistons, Stage III Max-Wedge heads, an aluminum
dual-plane high-rise with 850 Holley. And add in the .500 lift, 300 duartion solid-lifter Max-Wedge cam.
Some lightening equipment, like aluminum water-pump housing, oil-pump, and trunk-mounted battery. Maybe if Chrysler could convince Alcoa to re-start casting aluminum heads, a nice set of aluminum
Max-wedge heads. That should have gotten the car down to around 3225lbs. with 400HP (8.00 - 8.49 wt/hp)
