alignment for new suspension
This weekend I'm installing a bunch of new suspension. The list includes #### BMR hiem/poly LCAs, BMR hiem/poly panhard, 1 inch drop 170lb rear springs, QA1 rear single adjustable shocks, BMR k-member, BMR poly upper A arms, BMR lower A arms, QA1 single adjustable struts, 325lb .5 inch drop springs, BMR sway####. What kind of alignment would be best for my setup keeping in mind that I want to handle? I was thinking -2 degrees camber, .5 degrees toe out and maybe -2 pinion angle. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

As far as alignments this is a good general idea here:

There isn't anything inherently wrong with a QA1 shock. I'm planning on modifying them. I'll change the valving and a few other things. I want 9 second passes and handling. I know that won't allow me to do as well as I could at either but that's ok. Besides! Wheelspin at 100 is fun What's your setup like?
