Ohh, I did the opposite. Way to big of a cam for the street with a not so perfect tune. Car sounded carbed when I would first start it because it would take a good 30seconds to find its idle but it sounded like it was a nasty motor haha.

Quick release fittings mated to braided line. I should retract my pushlock comment since I didn't actually buy it.
The comments about the Mufflex y-pipe have me worried....

Nope, just for the one time I had to push the hose onto the end of that ****ing fitting, but first I had to hack off half the bell housing....
That one time would have been worth it.

Buying an exhaust that claimed to fit a long bed, and or, buying a downpipe that claimed to fit "well"

Coated Hooker Super Comp LT's..
I don't regret it per say, but I think a better route would have been to have a shop fab my y-pipe rather than the Mufflex piece. I've more so crushed my primaries than the y-pipe though

My biggest regret is trying to turn chicken **** into chicken salad with my third gen.
The 2nd worst decision was buying a 400sbc that needed to be pieced together from some random fool I didn't know

Ok, admit it. What parts do you regret?

The part I regret is not realizing how little time I really have to do anything right now!

Honestly? All of them. If I would have put all this money into a house, I could be real comfortable right now. By now I would have been in a situation to play a little. I guess you live and learn, not being a downer just being honest.
