There was a pretty good article that Grass Roots Motorsports ran last year(?). Try their site.

Antisway bars don't affect weight transfer... the only way to affect side-to-side weight transfer is to lower the center of gravity or increase the track of the car. Antisway bars will help you "tune" the way the chassis handles at the limit. If you have too much understeer, stiffen the rear or soften the front.
