The Gen-X is a completely different car with a completely different front end geometry. I thought (but I could be wrong) that the standard Gen-X spindles were 9 degrees. There is also a set of "crate" Gen-X spindles with the difference being a lower snout on the left side and longer steering arm on the right side.
I'm sure others can provide additional information but this is what I know of.
I was under the understanding that the current crate spindle and current open spindle are both different than the original gen x spindle.
