Great pictures - high quality, nice background, good placement of objects in your pics.
The car looks really clean and well kept. I personally think the car itself is a little boring, but that's not to say it's a bad car!

Even though its bone stock, I'd get some nice 16 or 17" Olds wheels (off an Aurora or Intregue) and put them on there. It would still look factory ("factory aftermarket") and give it a bit more aggressive stance. If you decide to go with the S/C'd 3800 you'll actually NEED them! That car is a keeper, wait another 5 years and watch how many more looks you get

I still think it's funny how CEG's resident elitist drives an Oldsmobile.

We also have a Chrysler Concorde LXi in the stable 
And yep, I laugh at myself everyday for the choices in cars I make. Thankfully no loans on any of em.

Roger, these wheels are 16" with 225/55/16's wrapping em.
The Chrome 16" Intrigue wheels do look pretty good but what most of the W-body guys do is put on Eagle 077's in polished or chrome.

How hard is the MTX conversion?

In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.

The hardest part if finding the tranny, its pretty damn rare  I thought I read somewhere back in the day its VERY rare, can someone help me out with the number  BTW, that black Cutlass looks  with those rims, but I like the chrome rims that came on the last Gen Aurora. Speaking of Aurora, why not swap in the 32v DOHC engine from one of those or even the Northstar. I've seen the Northstar in alot of different cars, that would be REALLY badass

They talked about that on the L67 link. Basically there aren't as many aftermarket mods for the Northstar, Aurora, or other engines that would make them a better choice over the 3.8SC. It was stated, though, that the new pushrod V8 might be a good option should the aftermarket embrace it.

add a similar year bonneville to the mix and you have the top two cars most inner city ghetto kids would love to have.
