joe, why a compesator when the factory comp department got rid of it in
1971. use the rocker spring that has been dearched along with 5' or 5
1/2" wheels and you will generate mor cornering force than the
compesator generated. in fact, if you read the road teast of the swing
spring car - new body style- they speak about the great increase in
cornering forces over the earlier car. great idea but you are right
about reinventing the wheel. we make springs and sway bars and will be
happy to quote you a price if you want to proceed. ted
