This is a situation that MANY people find themselves in. Build a gnarly engine with all sorts of fancy high-performance parts and put it into a street car, only to realize that they'd enjoy the car more if the engine was less extreme. When you're in the planning stages of a project, it's hard to not be lured into the more, more, more trap.

Good on ya for admitting to yourself that you weren't completely happy with the engine configuration. I bet you'll be a lot happier with a more toned down mill.
