    EW an ecliplon, or is it Talipse?

    Doesn't seem like a bad deal, that 420 making any noise?

    Its a Talon. I personally like the style of talons but the 420's aren't racecars IMO. 420 is running good but i think something is shot in the tranny. It makes noise in Neutral, 1st and 2nd, but not in 3rd 4th or 5th or if the clutch is depressed. Tranny R&R is a cake walk tho so if I have to replace it it's not a big deal.

    It looks to be in pretty good shape.

    And yeah, the 420's are farrrr from race motors, but they are stout little bastards. And for the trans being a cake walk, you got that right. It's like the size of a basketball. Our little 2g gets around 35-40mpg or so running around town.

    Yeah the tranny is nothing compared to the tranny on a GP. When I go to change the serpentine belt I know I'll start missing working on the GP tho.
