Coming from a roadracer, I "hear" many success stories about drag racers just disconnecting (or removing) the front swaybar for the street. Some of my friends do that, but they also run skinnies on the street.
The rear bar is over tha back tires, so weight isnt really an issue (as much as it might be over the front). Also, its a much smaller (lighter) bar.
THe 650# front springs are ok, but shocks need to dampen these loads. A stock strut is not going to dampen 650# springs. So you will end up with a crappy ride (like wasted struts). Plus, these springs LOWER a car. YOu want to keep stock ride height for weight transfer. Also, these coils are not very tall (long), so there is not a lot of stored energy (compress a looooong spring, versus a short high-load one). SO no weight transfer from the springs either.
My springs on the roadracer are like 1600# and get ZERO transfer at a drag strip. In fact, my friend is at the 60 foot mark, before my back tires cross the starting line.
Live with the stock springs, and get coilovers later. Save your money for now...
