Eagle Mk5 302 - Chevy F5000 Engine
Based on AAR's 1968 Indy car, the Formula 5000 Eagle won the first two US 5-litre Formula A championships, with Lou Sell in 1968 and Tony Adamowicz in 1969.
The 1968 Indy Eagle was the obvious basis for a Formula A car and Gurney had designer Tony Southgate make the few necessary changes. The monocoque was slightly slimmer and made from mild steel, instead of the chrome-moly required by USAC. The Indy car was already equipped with new all outboard front suspension, ideal for road courses, and the wheelbase was retained at the USAC's mandatory ninety-six inch minimum.
