I think it's going to be impossible to say what's best for you. It's going to depend on your spring rates, alignment settings, driving style, and how you like the car, (a little lose, or a little tight) and will take testing to find out what works for you. I would start with the solid Gendron 1.25 then you can go up or down on the center section till you find what works.

Ankeny bar, no question. The ability to change settings in 2 mins WITH the wheels still on the car is awesome.

CKit, I recently installed an OS Giken clutch LSD and I now have a monster low speed push. I'm running the Comptech front bar in the middle setting with the rear stock 2001 bar attached, KWV3s with 630 front 580 rear springs. Any specific suggestions?

Just get an adjustable bar so you can tune your suspension. No one knows which bar is "best." I'm happy with my Comptech adjustable.

robrob is right, I use a Saner bar and it works great for me. Mine is a dedicated track car 550#F and 500#R springs on Koni sports. The adjustability allows me to stiffen the front since I the Konis wont allow me to run a 700# spring without revalving. And I can soften it when it pushes to much, when I put a less-sticky tire on it. Bang for your buck is how I approach these dilemmas...
