2022-12-31 - Sway bar spacers

Q.
So in order to run the Front anti-roll bar with a <engine swap>, You are required to space the sway bar down and forward. The <engine swap> kit includes some brackets, as well as hardware and aluminum blocks that stiffen the mount. Would we be allowed to run these at no additional point cost?
I also take the 20 points for an aftermarket front sway bar, if they are not considered part of the necessary swap hardware, could they be considered as part of the anti-roll bar hardware?

A.
The mounts are not included in the swap. 
As long as you are paying the 20 points for the aftermarket sway bar you get the links and necessary mounts to make it work.
