Question STREET swaybar selection??

I was wondering if a thicker rear sway bar such as the Strano 22mm (not a drag bar) would help any in straightening out the car on the launch? At this point, i really don't want a thick drag bar since this car is currently my only 'streetable' car so i was wanting a dual purpose bar that would help in handling and it would be a plus if it also helped for drag racing. What are your thoughts? would it help my 60 and leveling out the car at the launch or would it do nothing for drag racing? Thanks.


here is the bar in question..i don't think the endlinks are adjustable..

If you wanted no noisy rod ends I would do the spohn 1" rear sway bar, thats 25mm and is better than stock. Not very expensive either last time I looked.

Though I did the Strano 35mm hollow bar, I went with the Spohn chromemoly 22mm for the rear bar. I'll post up Friday night after I get back from the track. My car already launches straight as an arrow, so, it might not make much difference, but, it sure won't hurt.
