Essentially what Dominic said. V6 sway bars were 30/17 up until '98, they went to 28/15 from 98+. V8 sway bars are 30/19, unless they are 1LE, then they are 32/21.2001 Onyx Black Camaro M5-Totalled<br />2005 Ford F150 XLT 5.4L<br /><br />\"To make peace, prepare for war.\"Comment

Thanks guys. So here is my question, if I put a 28 mm sway bar on the front of my car, will it launch better at the track? I've always heard if you remove the front sway bar it helps with weight transfer when launching. So if I put a thinner front sway bar on, will that help a little? I'm not crazy about the idea of removing the sway bar on my everyday driver.

Its very simple to remove and reinstall, takes all of 10 minutes [img]smile.gif[/img] I'd just do that or do nothing once you arrive at the track.2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I installed 1LE sway bars front and rear on my car and couldn't believe the difference. By far the best mod so far!1997 Camaro,<br />SLP cold-air, Hooker Supercompetition catback, Air temp. module, Powerstat thermo, 1LE Aluminum drive shaft, 3.42 POSI rear, 1LE sway bars front & rear, Powerstop crossdrilled rotors on all corners, Torque Thrust II\'s (17x9.5 front & 17x11 rear), and a couple other goodies. <a href=\"http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?selected=84487\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?selected=84487</a>Comment

I don't want better handling, I want better launching. I don't like the idea of taking my sway bar off every time I go to the track. I like to run my car in street trim. Thanls for the help guys. So will it help with weight transfer at all?My old car.<br />2000 Firedird 5-Speed<br />1/4 E.T. 15.601 @ 88.659 w/2.411 60\'<br /><br />New car.<br />1999 T/A 6-Speed<br />1/4 E.T. 13.181 @ 106.971 w/2.15 60\'Comment

Was the difference in handling or from a dead stop launch?My old car.<br />2000 Firedird 5-Speed<br />1/4 E.T. 15.601 @ 88.659 w/2.411 60\'<br /><br />New car.<br />1999 T/A 6-Speed<br />1/4 E.T. 13.181 @ 106.971 w/2.15 60\'Comment
