Looking for suspension parts

I have a '91 camaro rs. 3.1 liter engine. (in the process of upgrading) I took a posi rear off an 83 Trans am and stuck a thicker sway bar in the back. not sure what size but definitely an upgrade from my stock rear sway bar. Much better handling! anyways, partially motivated by looks and promises of tighter steering I am looking for the following parts and maybe advice on installing them...

1. Wonder bar
2. 3 point strut tower connector (really like the edelbrock style)

I've been looking around but these are among the first things to go on most part sales. If you have one up for sale hit me up! or even if you just have advice on hooking them up, opinions on brands, etc. Thanks!

Re: Looking for suspension parts

If you stuck a larger rear bar in, you'll want to match it in the front. The car will be somewhat unbalanced with mis-matched bars. You'll probably be better off to install SFCs over the STB, IMO. These things (STB, SFCs, wonder bar) stiffen the chassis and will improve handling. But, your best gains in handling (initially) will be seen in shocks and tires. With that being said, you'll want to go through the car and replace the worn bushings, bearings, etc.
