Why do you want more rear bar? I've got a small one on the 242 and the balance with the springs and dampers I'm running is just fine. Slop in transitions is more spring related than bar. Sharper handling IMHO is found in the 200 lb/in rear and 300 lb/in front with HD's valved to match.
Not everyone (read very few) are willing to go full custom when a rear bar will help keep the car level going around corners. Don't forget why you did it on the 242. Not everyone needs the handling tuned like that and not everyone is willing or needs to spend the coin to attain your setup.
That's not my question - my question is why does he think that more rear roll resistance is needed. I actually think larger rear bars make the handling worse not better ceteris paribus. This is also not my current spring rate (r250/f400) - revalving HD's is about $70 USD per corner. I wouldn't suggest anyone who isn't tracking a car should do what I've done. These spring rates get you into reasonably sporty ride frequencies.
