It seems that the FC borrowed all the front suspension parts from the
full-sized Chevrolet except for the crossmember. I assume that FC's have a
narrower track but otherwise the essential geometry is the same. The
reason I ask is that I am looking into making a stiffer front anti-sway bar
than what is offered by ADDCO. They sell a 3/4" bar, but I am interested
in making a 7/8" or 1" bar.
