Default Tall ball joints?

Have purchased a set of Global West front upper control arms. Plan to, for now, use stock lower control arms, but also purchase the global west steering knuckle to help eliminate bump steer.

My question is, would .5” or .9” taller upper ball joints be beneficial with this setup?

I’m working toward more of a resto-mod/pro-touring style car with my 70 GTO. Looking at (hopefully) putting larger (18”) wheels on it later this year. Also looking into lowering the car somewhere around 1” to 1-1/2”.

Thoughts on taller ball joints?
