Alf Wiebe A body rear control arms

I installed the Alf Wiebe rear springs and shocks from the rear suspension kit in my '68 Chevelle stocker.It definitely straightened out the launch by eliminating the corkscrew tendancy of these cars. I want to install the lower arms and the upper wishbone assembly so as to properly preload the chassis and center the rear end housing(it's a 12 bolt), but now I hear that the set up is either illegal or soon to be. There's at least 10 Chevelles running this setup that we know about, and Tony Janes and I are a little put out that we can't use it,especially after one is on his car. I haven't seen any posts or official response yet. Anybody out there know about this?These kits have been out 10 years or so,they are excellently engineered and constructed,and I would like to use it.
