Re: sway bar sizes

How will the car be used - straight line drag racing, or street handling with lots of high speed curves?

For ultimate street handling suspension parts, check out :

For drag racing oriented parts, look at Spohn or BMI.

And, we have a "Suspension......." forum, so I'll move the post there for you.

Re: sway bar sizes

also its a street car, that may visit the strip here and there.... but its also at daily driving hp of 700+ whp

Hotchkis charges top tier prices. I have their LCA's, tower brace, and panhard bar. I see no difference in performance increase between them, and some of the better priced companies. I have some Spohn stuff, and they have great customer service and great products. Good luck.

Re: sway bar sizes

Strano also makes an adjustable rear bar so you can adjust you much anti-roll you have, at the rear anyway.
