* The idler arms are the same With P/S and Without P/S so the 889 bends back up to meet it (on left).
* On the 889 the stud is lower than the hole (on right) so the 889 and 816 inner tie rod points are the same.
* The 889 doesn't hang lower overall because it has less drop (under the oil pan) between the tie rod holes.
* Oil pan clearance is the same for both 889s and 816s.
Now I understand why GM engineers needed two different center links.
