regret buying two more torque thrust M's when I damaged two, instead of getting some dark grey c5 deep wheels

This! Even though at the time I didn't feel this way, looking back I think I had the most fun with the car when it was bolt ons only. Now that I am re-doing everything it is more of a pain in the ass than an enjoyment.
As far as individual parts go, I would have to say my CCI clutch I put in. It was attractive because it was cheap and "supposed" to hold a decent amount of power. Though it worked great when it was only bolt ons, as soon as I launched it with a sticky tire and nitrous it was shot. Didn't even last 1 pass on the spray

That did suck quite much.
Buying used parts usually ended up sucking. Buying bolts that were too long for the engine to bellhousing and only finding out when I tried pulling the trans with the motor in car.

Many come to mind, but one that really rings a bell is the installation of a "foreign made" in tank fuel pump on my first 3rd. Meh no need to check it, its new. Reassemble everything get in to go for a ride it never worked, removed it and installed a second "foreign made" pump. Im hip to this TPI stuff now so nothing can rain on my parade, "Ok before we start to put everything back together for the second time lets turn the key and see if we have fuel", the pump makes noise and fuel shoots out the line! YES, success. Re assembled everything only to find that too was bad. Finally head back to the parts store for the third go round and the owner helps me out this time. "Hey kid why didnt you ask for the Walbro pump the first time, there made in the USA, that pump is a nightmare to change out"
Its lifes little lessons we all learn from

Going the N20 route in my old V6 firebird. I should have done a Turbo on it! N20 3.8<Turbo 3.8.
In my T/A probably the 383 motor. If I could do it over again I would have done a Supercharger and been done with it. Maybe built a forged 347 or something for the boost!

The electric WP and March midmount billet accessory setup I put on my GTA years ago... Looks great, but WAAAAAAY overkill for what I needed. I let looks get the best of me... while it functions great and looks killer, it was a lot of money that could have gone elsewhere on the car. Live and learn, that was 10 years ago, at least any SBC I own will be guaranteed to have a nice clean accessory setup!
