Good points!
Actually although many have deemed the original LCA's a weak point, I think the construction is pretty solid and a nice combination of a wishbone kind of way combining the sway bar into the suspension set-up.

There is indeed no way to use the pictured porsche parts due to lack of sway bar attachment.
Sooo, I have come upon a small company in germany that makes an aluminium LCA for the late 1303 out of 7075 aluminium. However, his small batch was already sold out. Next weekend I am able to see one of those sets on a new years VW event in germany (Herford).
Of course, I'll try to make a picture of said arms.

Here's the set on Mario Asstmann's reincarnation of a GSR:
