Hopefully you verified that the oil pan is not hitting something already?!

You are correct. The firebirds and camaros have different center links. The firebird center link is more or less straight and the camaro link has a slight bend in it. I have already taken the center link out and have a camaro center link to put in its place.
I have a champ road racing pan, and I am pretty sure it will clear the bottom cross-member (and hopefully the camaro center-link). I have been told that the 69 sub-frame is the same as a 68 camaro sub-frame.
