Mopar Performance had bigger bars, but the ad sounds like they are factory original small block bars (.850 or .870). I'd pass, especially since he's not showing the part number end and can't measure correctly.

(even though it measures to .001) Photobucket sucks

The torsen bars lagrer than that used the same number (on the bar) for both left and right side.
