Ok, admit it. What parts do you regret?

i regret buying the trailblazer in 06 and not just putting an engine into my old pickup... that huge expense is kind of what forced me financially to stay stock internals on the trans am... which took the fun out of it at its final stages...

if i never bought the tbss, i would have a cool 92 pickup and the t/a would have been closer to the goals... and i probably would have had money in the bank on top of all that

Add me to the I wish I saved more for a house list. I could probably have a house halfway paid off by now in another state or a nice down payment saved up for a house in Jersey.

if i had a auto at the time it probly woulda been ok, but with a 6speed and a monster level 6 clutch driving around town was rough, it would pop and click real loud around turns, and load and unload causing the car to drift for a split second kinda scary, so happy its gone, but i still have it, its for a ford 9'' its forsale

So nut up. What have you guys bought that you wish you hadn't?

I bought the 3" exhaust for the 70 SS396 and ran into the same problem. You would really need a muffler shop to fit the tailpipes properly between the leaf springs and lower quarter panel. I just cut them 67-68 style and it worked fine. I think the 3" headpipes into the mufflers works fine but just take 2-1/2" pipes off the mufflers for better clearance and probably minimal power loss.

The pacesetter headers, 4:10 gears (never really got to use them properly) and lowering the car without having adjustable upper a arms.

Def performabuilt level 1 trans. No more forth gear. Time for a level 2

Lots of parts I regret but don't think I'd have done it differently, only way to learn is to make mistakes
