The part numbers for the Trans am and Camaros are the same and it is the straight arm. There is some good info on this over at NastyZ28.com. Here are a couple of pics of mine. You can see there is now plenty of clearance and the center link is almost parallel.

Yeah, i posted this over on Nasty and got some good info there as well. Feedback i got over there said the idler are is good to go stock.

So we did what you did, but didnt change the idler arm or c/link. Its not too far outa alignment, plus with the new ls setup, i have to take a 1/4 coil out to relower it so she's gonna need an alignment anyways.....
