Best coil spring traction bar???

what's the best traction bars for a trailing arm car such as a 1971 monte carlo? Any suggestions or info appreciated, because my current setup from the chassis shop does NOT work. Needs to be stock eliminator legal. Thanks in advance!

I have some G body trailing arm cars.don't use traction bars cause their are no leaf springs. I use an adjustable upper arm to set pinion angle.an air bag on the pass side. (Some use air bags on both sides ) an anti roll bar,and their are several different coil spring rates to choose from.and a good pair of shocks.they are actually very straight forward and more tune able than a leaf spring set up IMO
