Im finishing up my gen 1 sbc swap in my 94 ex-3.4L car. But now that the motor is in and sway bar is on, there is about 1/16th of an inch between the bar and the dampner. Is the v6 sway bar or sway bar brackets different from the v8's? I also switched to shorter endlinks to rotate the bar around a little but that still didnt work. Any ideas???

It's possible you have the bar on upside down.

Does the center section of the bar look like this

or this

Well it is in the right way. But it appears that the dampner on a gen 1 sbc sits about 2inches closer to the block compared to an lt1. It is also a little larger in diameter. Therefore it sits right where the sway bar goes. And with a bmr k member and the car being lowered it all just kind of put the bar way too close. I will have to cut a piece of flat metal 3/8-1/2" plate and mount that between the bracket and the sway bar. Thanks for the quick reply though mitchntx.
