DB6 front sway bar blade connector

Need some help on the DB6 in rebuilding.

The rear sway bar has a link which connects the two blades at the top. It's a rod with two heims and mounts on top of the links that go to the rocker.

The front had an aluminum plate with two holes drilled in it and than the links for the rockers were on top of that. It seems like the connecting piece would go under the rocker links in front despite that being opposite to the rear. I do feel strongly that an aluminum plate with holes drilled in it is not the correct method to link the blades though.

I am also not sure why the blades would be connected. I know they originally were but no other pushrod car with blade sway bars that I've ever driven have been connected. If they are going to be connected than what was originally used or what should be used? Seems like there isn't enough room for a heim system like the rear.

Pictures and comments would be greatly appreciated.

Long shot; Bruns, the DB-1, and the radial

The more I hear about setting up my DB-1 for the radials, the less I know. I am not a suspension engineer, and I don't happen to know anyone who is, but much as I suspected, the new tire appears to alter more than the camber angle. I know this is the ultimate long shot, but it won't cost me much to ask. Does anyone know Dave Bruns? Is he still active / interested in FF and the DB-1? Would he look at the new tire and the changes needed to adapt the Swift to the tire, and make some suggestions? I am sure the teams with good engineers will find a solution, but they are unlikely to give that to the rest of us. Bruns might be willing to support his creation and it's drivers.

Formula car roll cage bracing rule history

Does anyone remember when the roll cage bracing rule 9.4.5.C (1) was added to the GCR? What was the history behind that? My 1983 Crossle has the bracing added after original construction so it must have happened after 1983. I have been trying to talk some of my vintage friends in to racing their FFs in our regional CF class but the bracing modification required offends their vintage sensibilities.

We must have an unofficial history of safety improvements person out there somewhere who can put this into perspective.

Just wondering.
