FWIW - I have FirmFeel's tubular sway bar "kit" mounted front and rear of our '65 to flatten the car... ..then I experimented with shocks...
While not a performance shock, Monroe Gas-matic or comparable nitrogen charged shocks are significantly better than plain oil shocks and will have enough oomph to control t-bars up to .96 diameter. These can be a decent budget alternative until you decide to move up to better dampers or step up suspension rates.
... I ended up real happy with basic Monroe-Matics in front, and 'stiffer' Monroe-Gasmatics in the rear.
This gave me smooth transition to oversteer entering turns that I can manage with throttle through the turn - which is exactly what I was looking for.

PS - I don't track race my Mopars, I just wanted the '65 to have better handling.
