I have the QA1's on my Nova, and although the springs are a bit stiff after trimming to get the desired ride height, they work just fine. 12 settings, and I use #3 for a full tree and #4 for a .500 pro tree.
I must admit that the springs are too tall, so you end up at the bottom of the adjustment, hence the trimming.
If your on a budget, stock A Arms will work fine as long as you use good bushings. Make sure you take out as much bump steer as possible. And limit the front end rise of the car. I prefer about 3 to 4 inches of rise measured at the front bumper. Bear makes an affordable tie rod end kit to help the bump steer.
