    ADDCO, Hellwig, Hotchkis as well as many race car suppliers make aftermarket sway bars, but on something other then a stock suspension, anything you do will be "home engineered" to fit. Since it sounds like you don't know the Mll manufacturer, I would probably try to find a '54-'56 version, add some adjustable links and go that way. You probably couldn't use a '53 as they were still a kingpin suspension, going to ball joints in '54, but the frame remained basically the same.

    As far as weight bias, as you said way back, a 302 actually weighs a few pounds less (~40) then a flathead V8.
