1" would be clearly lighter. As a torsion bar it will be about the same stiffness as the 7/8" bar. You would have to know the wall thickness of the "hollow" bar and do some math to be sure.....
Iirc some 1" ( perhaps hollow) bars were made around 2010 for some of the Tiger race guys stateside.. I recall trying to help sort polly bushes for them
FYI got a 1” sway bar that is solid and have a poly or rubber bushing on the bar, which broke off by hand. Want to source bushings also but a Tiger freind informed me that he used 1” id clear rubber tubing which has a 3/16“ wall thickness. Has had them on his Tiger for 20 years with no problem. Will give it a try.
I have a 1 1/8" bar on my car using the stock clips and it has never torn the tabs off but I've seen small pieces of round stock welded across the top of the outside of the slot to add strength
I think someone made a bunch of these in the past... They are pretty HD ...
