Hey all, I've been lurking for a while now and just now registered.

A little about me...

I"m a 32yr old man with a wonderfull wife and one 3yr old little boy. I've been a car nut since I was old enough to say "car". My first car was an 84 Olds Omega (FWD, 4cyl, 4-door) and when it shot craps I got the car I really wanted. It was an 81 Cutlass, V-6, buckets and Floor Shifter. I had that car until I was a senior in high school when I got a Blazer for Graduation. My younger sister took over the Cutlass and ended up wrecking it. My attention then switched to F-body car and my current toy is an 89 Firebird Formula 350 with the L98 and a T-5 Swap. Its an amazingly fun car to drive but as stated above with a 3yr old and plans for more its time to send the "Formy" off to someone else and I"m now looking to get my "highschool" car back. I'd like to find another Cutlass but have thought about maybe a Grand Prix to keep the Pontiac gods happy. LOL Anyway, glad to be here and look forward to reading some more of the fantastic information you have here.

Thank you, and I'm up near Marysville, Kansas. Here are a few pics of the current beast taken at the 2008 HR Power Tour.

Cool car, I had a white '89 formula 350, but I rode like a go-cart so I sold it, fun to drive though. Yours looks way better than mine did.

Welcome! Those L98's had massive low end torque. I've owned about 5 F-bodies in various generations over the years. Good luck on your Cutlass search.
