Spent $80 on a 'universal' EGR delete kit that was anything but
Picked it up online for a 6.0 Powerstroke I was working on. The description said it fit 'most' applications, which should have been my first clue. Got everything apart, went to put the new block-off plate on, and the bolt holes were off by like a quarter inch. Had to drill new ones, which was a pain, and then the gasket material was basically cardboard. Ended up having to make my own gasket anyway. The whole thing turned a 2 hour job into a 5 hour mess. Anyone have a go-to brand for that kind of stuff that actually fits right?

Yeah my buddy got burned by that exact "fits most" line too and ended up at the hardware store on a Sunday.

Stick with Sinister Diesel for the 6.0 stuff. Their kits are pricey but the parts actually line up and the gaskets are solid. Saved me a ton of headache on my last delete.
