I am going to swap a set of long steering (knuckle) arms for a set of short ones on my 68 camaro. Will I have to realign the front end or can I just readjust the tie rod length? Any help would be appreciated.

you will need to reset the toe, best done at an alignment shop, tho there are ways to shadetree it.
