V8 Sways on a V6

like the title says i want to put larger V8 sway bars on my V6 car. Does that create any issues with the other suspension parts? I know its only a 6 but i like to corner so i will be stepping up the rear control arms, torque arm and pan etc etc. Those components are car specific right? It does not matter what engine i have does it?

I have a 34hallow, and 24 solid on mine.

Do not put the 36 on, it will be to much unless you order the spohn 25 rear.

Main thing, install with new polly bushings everywhere.
