TALON'S HEART
The power for this Eagle's flight come
from transversely mounted, Garrett turbocharged, Mopar intercooled,
16-valve 4-cylinder engine with two liters of displacement. Engine
compartment treatment is evidence of the kind of carefully considered
work that has helped take Archer Brothers Eagle Talon drivers to
six consecutive class championships in World Challenge competition.
