As always, the wild card is the arrival time of the incoming flight and I have to say that makes me a bit nervous.
If it's a carry-on sized bag, you won't need to check it, if it's not then you will. Plan on 45 mins to retrieve your bag in BCN to be on the safe side.
You won't need to clear customs, but you will need to clear immigration when leaving BCN.
