Rear sway bar for 1964 plymouth valiant
There are variables to consider.
On the surface, I'd advise against the larger bar based on the assumption that all else being equal with both rear bars aside from the diameter, the larger bar will likely induce a strong OVERsteer condition. Great for drifting, terrible for regular street driving.
The variables include the length of the lever arms, the overall shape, the material used for the bars and the methods that they are attached.
A 7/8" bar with 10" lever arms may not be as stiff as a 3/4" bar with 9" lever arms.
