Default Sway Bar advise

I need to have a custom front sway bar bent for my car and would prefer to have it done only once. Due to suspension configuration, a modular sway bar is not an option. Off the shelf bars will not fit due to the modifications I have made.

So... what size should I get? 1", 1-1/8", 1-1/4" ? I'll be putting lots of road miles on this as it may do Daily driver duties during the nicer times of the year. Family drives around the country side and travel to and from events. But I want it to also be a solid performer at Autocross and Road Course functions. The wife thinks it would be really cool to have a roll cage in the car so I dont think comfort has to be too much a factor in the ride quality.

I know there is a lot more to consider when selecting a bar but this is all I've got to work with:

Ford Maverick
Weight : 3350 51/49 balance

Front:
Total Control Products Coilover conversion 450 lb springs.

Rear:
Total Cost Involved Torque Arm with 250 lb springs and 3/4 sway bar.

Thanks
Chris
