Hi just to keep everyone in the loop and for others future ref here is the PM between Lee and myself.

Hi Mike.
I just saw your message (I haven't been on here while I was out of town.)
The center link from Ames seems to fit and work just fine. I haven't had a chance to get to an alignment shop yet, so there could be a difference in overall length but looked very close. I think it should work just fine, just has a little different bend to it.
My original was the straighter bar, but my car was in pieces when I got it, so I can't be sure if it was the original or not.
Hope that helps.
Lee

Thanks Lee. I have done a trial assembly and found Ames supplied one of the inner tie rods incorrectly (mis picked) - correct part is on the way.

Regarding tie rods

The inner tie rods have a kink in them. my originals look to have a more subtle kink than the replacement ones. Ames have supplied one to date (other was the incorrect part) that is Moog part ES716 - this seems to be the correct part number when you Google around i.e. it is what summit racing spec, what the Moog site specs' (when you can find the site) can you give me some feedback on the attached pics vs what you have on your car.

ar cant seem to attach or paste images in - I'll see if I can do it in the original article.
