26mm torsion bars
26mm rear torsion bars for 911's up to and including 1986. I no longer need these, so they're up for sale - $100, you pick up.

Another stupid question. How do these compare to my stock Sc's?

I think you have 23mm's. These are an excellent street / track compromise, for the not yet full fledged track-aholic, or one that's still in denial.
 Matches nicely with 21mm front t-bars.

Great upgrade to otherwise stock early car (to ’77). Can install slightly larger front sway bar, no rear or small rear. Great around town, highway and some “spirited driving”. Done in conjunction with new bushes nets BIG all around improvement.

After I got home I checked and it wasn’t until ’86 that the rear torsion bars were enlarged to 25mm so Jims right. These would make an excellent choice for 911 up to ’85 and a reasonable one for ‘86s. Somewhere there is a table or Engineer/Math guy that can “do the math” on how much stiffer. Seem to remember that fronts on all were 18.5mm. Someone has a set laying around maybe they can measure
  This comes up often enough that it would be nice if the computer guys got together with the math guys and “created” a calculator to figure this out.

Dammit. My project cost keeps escalating and the slope keeps getting slipperyer.
