do i have to get a bigger rollbar if i get the 2Bennett setup?



Hey all, my friend chris morlock (yes, again) is insisting that since im 
upgrading the rest of the suspension, that i MUST increase the size of 
the rollbar and add one in the rear.  I contest that the one up front is 
already huge for the weight of the car and doesnt need to be upgraded, 
and that in the rear the tie rods act as a roll bar.  Im getting 350lb 
springs up front and 270 in the rear.  So do i have to upgrade?  He is 
gettign his info from the chassis teacher at skyline college here in the 
bay area.  They do have an excellent automotive program,.  But he wont 
believe anyone that has done it and says that its fine and he wont 
believe that the car is severely overengineered....

later...
