Misty and I jumped in the Cutlass and went to the local cruise-in tonight. Good times! For going to the cruise-in, I had to take her for dinner afterwords....fair trade for a "date" and car show. Ha!

For the newbie's or anyone local, this is a free weekly "bring-what-you-got" cruise-in at the intersection of hwys 183 and 1431 in Cedar Park Texas, just north of Austin.

Got there at dusk, so cell phone pics are a bit dark and grainy, sorry. Good news is on the 40-mile round-trip tonight, the new 350 in the Cutlass never got over 200-degrees on the gauge. Guess it just had air in the system still when it ran a little hot Friday. Car ran super too, the 350 is really breaking in well, gets smoother and feels better with ever mile, and the new engine was a hit at the show. I didn't paint under the hood today but cleaned A LOT. It helped.

Here's some show pics, enjoy!

Getting to the show, engine is a hit (but need to peel off the dumb K&N sticker)

Great to see your Cutlass back on the road again.Wonder what the underhood temps are running
with the twin turbo Trans Am.Awfully tight space under the hood WITHOUT the turbos.
Thanks Mike
