Arms are vertical and end links are horizontal.
Car came with rear set up as you see it.
Former owner had a 9.5 qarter miler here and
I am attempting to return it to "street" shape.
I cannot believe what they did to the wiring, if you can call it that.

I see what you are refering to. Have no idea what prior owner intended? I believe I have GM F-41for G-Body someplace.....

Yeah, well reverse their orientation. The factory F41 bar is trash compared to proper (and properly setup) chassis mounted ARB.
 
I agree and am going with HRnStuff rear sway bar kit.

Why spend more to get less? Your car already has a superior design installed.

You know better than I. No experience with either set up, but going with a street car motive, I want to have exhaust tailpipes over rear axle and exit behind rear wheels like the L-72 equipped mid sixties B-boy cars. The present set up interfers with that routing.
I have another G-Body I might buy and I may go a bit more radical with that one. I have 468" BB that needs to be employed!
Any other advice or observations appreciated as I had no idea these cars existed!
