Default Upgraded sway bar 79 vette!

Hello. I'm thinking of upgrading both of my sway bars on a 79 vette. Originals are still installed. I found one at ecklers that caught my eye and wanted to have a second opinion of the sizes for front and rears. Just want the right size for the best handling and control. Please reply on your experience upgrading your sway bars. Much appreciated!

The front 1-1/8 bar is definitely the thing you want to do. Try it first, then if you want more go for the rear. 1-1/8 front was the size used in the original FE-7 handling package. Also renew all of your suspension bushings at the same time or the effort will be wasted.
