Dennis Olthoff covered this subject at the Deep South Cobra Club annual meeting. He recommends (at least on Superformance Cobras) a larger sway bar on the rear than on the front with somewhat soft springs. Sway bars allow you to run softer springs and still keep body roll to a minimum. This gives a more compliant ride over bumps and helps keep all 4 wheels/tires planted.

Dennis invited a Bilstein Shock Rep and I now want new shocks.


If you want to drag race disconnect the front sway bars to allow better weight transfer.
