Sway Bar advice

[88 Club Sport]

The next suspension mod planned for my 78 SCarrera is a set of sways and I'd like opinions/advice on:

1. Size
2. Manufacturer

The car is a DE car only. Currently set up w/Bilstein Sports, 23/29 torsions, poly's up front and neatrix in the rear. It's shod w/Victoracers currently.

I am aware of Smart Products at $1200, Elephants at $900 and of course Weltmeisters which are cheaper but I've never heard too many good things about them, at least for a track car. Any others out there I should consider?

I know I need to strengthen the rear mounts.....anything else I need to take into consideration?

Charly Bars

or Tarret

I used Carrera sways 22/21mm, you can find these for around $100 a piece. It is a pretty common upgrade for an SC, downside is that they're not adjustable.

I think Partick Motorsports sells the set F&R for $120

I have the Tarett ones and they are fantastic. Light and easily adjustable. Just a little pricey!

I have the Smart racing bars. 31mm front and 27mm rear. They are an outstanding product and work very well on my car. If you are going to race or time trial in the near future you can't do better than these bars. If you are going to just do DE's for a few years I'd buy some used weltmiesters and save the money for when you do decide to race/timetrial.

I have Smart in front, Welt in the back. I had a Welt up front, but didn't like the play in the bushings. I would have gone to Smart in back too, but they dont' have a lot of ground clearance. Given that my car is lowered *and* is a daily driver, that isn't a good thing...

Elaphant Racing was my choice!
