Arrow Torsion bar stiffness

I want to stiffen the back of my 76 Carerra 3.0 by upgrading the current H&R coil overs (170 pounds per inch). I still run the standard torsion bars front and back on the car. Does anybody know what the stiffness of these bars (pounds per inch)are. I would like to avoid removing and measuring them in order to calculate the stiffness

Hi:
I did too..on a large range of front and rear torsion bars. See Rennlist Tech archives.
