Did Stielow weld/narrow a swaybar?

[GNon18s]

Am I remembering correctly that Mark Stielow mini-tubbed a red 65 Chevelle and narrowed the rear sway bar and re-welded it? Im just wondering how that held up. I would think welding on a sway bar could be sketchy but Im in a situation where I might need to try it on my G-body where I narrowed the rear frame rails. I tried to pm Mark but that didnt work out so does anybody know anything about this? ..FYI, I have a brand new DSE tubular bar i'd like to use.
