Really? Hmmm. I intend to use this car for autoxing as well as on
the street. Does that make a difference in what direction I should
take the suspension mods like this? Does anyone out there run an MGB
in DSP and if so, would you be willing to share your setup secrets?

Does a sway bar add that much weight to the wheels? It would seem to
me that most of the weight is supported where the bar is mounted to
the body.
