sway bars or nah im going with a 2" drop, koni sa's. I got adjustable panhard and lcas. Do i need aftermarket sway bars? If so how big.front and rear? Im really confused on sway bars. I did a search but came up with nothing when lowering the car. The car is only gonna be a street car. not looking for drag, or canyon carver.

"Need", nope. But aftermarket sway bars will make the
car handle better and that makes any corner even more
fun.
You want a balanced pair which is why I bought and
recommend Strano's set.
Lowering will also flatten the ride and this might be
enough for you. But mo'betta, as they say.

Depends on what you want on the car and what you are willing to spend.
Strano recommends them as the number two thing to do to an f-body (behind Koni SA's)...FWIW...and the dude knows what he is talking about.
But is it worth the money on a street car? That's personal opinion...

Also, if handling is your goal, get a performance alignment---not a stock one! Alot can be gained w Zero toe, negative camber (I run -1.5) and posetive castor (4.5). Factory alignment intentionally causes understeer (for people who cannot control oversteer).
In short...I would/did get them.
