Yeah the talon. A pic will work, do you have any pics of the engine bay. My buddy has a 2g eclipse he's trying to build, so I'm pretty interested in what you had in your talon.

Yup he has the 420a. I tried convincing him to swap to a first gen 4g63 but he said he's keepin it mopar. Even though he agrees the the 1st gen 4g63 was the best motor in the DSMs.

Those are some dark bastards. Put a shirt on next time you take a pic

Lifting isn't that hard, you just gotta know how to wrench.
