You're going to have to have custom arms built if you want this thing to work out right. Because the lower pivot points have been moved outward so far, the pivots on the end of the steering rack have to be moved out accordingly. As your new lower control arms travels through its new, smaller than original arc, the longer arc of the original tie rod will cause toe-in as compression occurs. That is assuming the Super is rear steer, I've never looked at one. If it is front steer, you'll have toe-out.
