Without some type of lubrication and/or a bronze bearing surface, Aren't you concerned with galling of the aluminum contact surfaces on the blocks against the power coated sway bars?
The clearances appear tight from the photos...(Beautiful Workmanship I might add). At minimum, the powder coated contact surfaces will deteriorate and increase frictional loads.
I would think you would want the rotational movement of the sway bars to transfer from one wheel to the other with minimal losses due to rotational friction. I have actually seen roller bearings used in this application to minimize the rotational frictional losses on the bars.
Just something to consider...
