I am certainly not forgetting that. But the increase in the sway bar was an
effort to compensate for the decrease in rear roll stiffness.

Don't forget too that when BL added the swing-spring they also
increased the stiffness of the front (anti)sway bar. It principle
this combination should solve the tuck-under problem but increase
understeer, thus decreasing the ultimate lateral g's you can obtain.
I kinda' like the feel of my Spitfire's stock suspension, slightly
sagging at the rear, but then, I gave up worrying about ultimate
lateral g's a long time ago. If I ain't competin' then it don't
really matter.
Your mileage will certainly vary...
Tomorrow we're gonna' terrorize farm stands with the GT6, the Lord
willin' and the creek don't rise.
