Z28 / Coupe Suspension
Hey guys - i've got a few questions. I've got a 1985 Z28 parts car that i tore apart and i think i found a few goodies on her 
1) There was a bar that bolted on with the sway-bar, i believe it to be a 'wonder bar' - if it is, should it see service on my 1988 Sport Coupe?
2) The rear sway bar on the Z28 is visibly nearly 2x as thick as that of the SC, i'm thinking of putting that on with polyurethane bushings - good idea?
Any other toys i might have and not know about PLEASE alert me to! I'm going to make my SC as violent as possible - and the suspension DEFINITELY is a place to start. Thanks fellas!

I took a good look between the two sway bars (Z28 and Sport Coupe) and they look the same for thickness - so i dunno. I'mna pull the front/rear bars off to paint them and put in new bushings anyway so we'll see. Any other tips? I'm looking into a shock-tower brace and trailing arms - which should go first?
