If you look on O'Reilly Auto Parts site, you can find the part, expand the information for the part, then there is a Compatability tab. It shows all applications, not just Camaros. I find this feature very useful. Check it out.
I have in the past used the AC/Delco site to find other applications, which is pretty useful, though I have a hard time getting to the proper area of the site, due to the way it is layed out. Could be just me. The O'Reilly site is pretty easy for the internet challenged.

Basically, any .From any brand or year of car. Only difference is in how it mounts, what electric plug it uses, and what size the vac fittings are.
All that the "solenoid" is, is an electrically operated valve. Apply juice, valve opens. Remove juice, valve closes and vents the "down" side to the atmosphere so that the line between it and the controlled thing can vent and consequently it can return to "rest". No-brainer (which explains why I can "get it"... I have no brain... you're [Forrest Gump] smaaarrrrtt [/Forrest Gump] though so you won't have any trouble)
