Talk with the engineer at Dayton Air Products. You want an HCV with the smallest deadband possible, that would be the area around zero position that did not result in air flow either direction. When you do that, you also need slow response so the valve actuation doesn’t consume a ton of air with each bump in the road.
If you put a longer arm on the HCV, you will negate the benefit of the longer arm on the sway bar. The HCV works off degrees of rotation. A three inch bar on the CV and a three inch bar on the sway will give exactly the same degrees of rotation as a six inch bar on the HCV and a six inch bar on the sway bar. Now, if you leave the 3 inch bar on the HCV, and use six inch mount distance on the sway bar, you will double the degrees of rotation at the HCV.
