I was wondering what you guys run for lower control arms on Imca mod metric chassis ,i have heard impala on left front ,crown vic on right front.I know the control arms have to be narrowed substantually to fit metric chassis. it is a pierce chassis with this setup but not enough camber right front.it actually goes neg on turns. I am new to helping on this mod and i know someone will say call pierce and we did that.but it has beeen altered by someone else.of a well known name.

Crown Vic and Impala arms are different length, and under most sanctions, that would be illegal. Along with the fact that you would have to modify them or the frame is frowned on as well.

Most guys run nova lowers on the small metric frames.

What length upper are you running with the nova lowers shorten up the right upper and it will have a much better camber curve and keep it from going past straight up under dynamic roll I can completely compress my rf shock on the track and still keep it from going past center with a 7" upper

I run either nova lowers both sides or nova lower on right and metric lower on left to get 1 inch lead in right front.

Throw novas on. IMCA most likely wouldn't care because if you're in a metric car you ain't up front but keep it simple. Novas and be done with it. Spindle either metric or pinto. Metric bend easier though but a dime a dozen.
