I checked out the local shop that was running Camaros and BMWS in the Contential tire series not to long ago. They had the coolest set up for in car adjustable sway bars. Basically the swaybar arms are square, but more like flatbar stock. They have a system to rotate the arm from the drivers seat so that if they stand the arm up complety vertical its the stiffest, and if it's rotated flat (180 degs) its at its softest. So, the arm not the bar is adjusted for the stiffness, all from the drivers seat!

The slider clamp will allow me to slide up and down the sway bar arm. The shorter the arm, the stiffer the setting. The clamp Vince is making wont be a two piece though, will be thicker, and have the two sinch bolts lined up horizontally at the bottom.

I always thought the blade set up was for splined bars. looks like that set up is welded and not splined? Pretty cool, would save time and keep you from having to get on and off the track to make adjustments but not something I want in my cockpit.

Yeah it's good to see you back at it Gaetano! Did you change anything else on the motor besides the drive since you have it apart? How'd things look inside?

Yes, that setup pictured is actually for an s2000, but setups like that can be made for any vehicle. HRPWORLD.COM has all the parts to make the blade bars yourself. Or ypu could contact Guy Ankeny or Mike Maier and see what either is willing to do for you. I'll be honest, it wont be cheap. Somewhere north of $1000, but the tuning thats available through a bar like that is priceless...
