lowering and alignment question
i recently lowered my car (99 z28) with the eibach pro-kit up front. i did the heater hose mod in the back to keep the slanted look. question is what are the best alignment specs to give the shop so they will get it right. ive found these so far from researching:
-.5 to -1.0 camber
+4.5 caster
0.0 toe
do those numbers sound alright? also should i ask for a four wheel alignment to adjust the thrust angle from the rear being moved after lowering. i put an adj phb on too. thanks for any help

Some shops will never get the camber, or caster exactly where you want it, so shoot for +4 to +4.5 on the caster, IMO
