They need to match the control arms from the pivot of the crossmember to the C/L of the BJ stud.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Technically, for near zero bumpsteer, they should match the lower control arms throughout their range of travel.
