With an engine swap I'm going to say your **** out of luck. Unless you want a front tie bar that is like an 1'' off the ground.

Personally, I wouldn't bother with a front tie bar. All you due is make your car harder to turn.

I disagree - it made my car easier to turn. In my experience, alignment & tire selection have a bigger effect on required steering effort. No offense - I realize every car, and every setup is a little different.

In your original post, you did not mention if the tie bar in question was an upper or lower piece.
What brand of lower tie (arm) bar did you purchase?
