Gary,
If you are going to be autocrossing, the Swing spring is not as effective as
the camber compensator. It offers up too much body roll compared to the
fixed spring. I have also found that with the fixed spring and the camber
compensator the 7/8" front sway bar is too stiff. Going back to the 5/8
one is much better (at least on my car).
