Only with the proper springs. Put a light spring in the front and that thing will dive like crazy without a sway bar.
I think alot of guys over look that fact early on. They blame the lack of of a sway bar on the front end diving down....not the light springs.
I am going to run a MustangII on my EM, no sway bar and I ordered 600# springs for it. I dont plan on racing it other than a little street racing..(shhhh). There is alot more to setting up a front end than just a sway bar and springs. Like Jerry said...if your corner weights arent right your gonna have problems no matter what you do.
Donunder, try it without and make a few spring changes. Alot of guys run them on hotrods without sway bars.
Just my 2 cents worth.
