You have it pretty well covered. I'd have it aligned to 1.0 degrees of negative camber (or more...I'm running 1.3 deg. but you trade tire wear for handling), 4.5 to 5 degrees of castor (I'm runing 4.5) and 0 toe or 1/32 total toe out (toe out helps the turn in on the car). Just my thoughts....good luck.

just another thing i am running bridgestone pole position s02 tires 285 35 18 in rear and 275 40 17 in front they are alot of cash so dont want to fast of tread wear but will sacrafice some for better performance and next get a less expensive tire.

I have been running with my alignment settings for about 7500 miles now and the front tires have about 17,300 on them total and I still have lots of tread left (over 1/2). It won't destroy tires, but you may not see 50,000 out of them either....But it will turn!

Sounds good. Its pretty close to what I have. I'm running something like 1.5 degrees Camber, 4.6 degrees Caster, and 1/16" toe in.


Where exactly is the 3rd point mounted on the STB? I have been looking into what it would take to convert my Hotchkins 2 point to a 3 point.

My strut tower brace is from lg it bolts up to the towers and to the fire wall might even weld it in a couple of spots on the fire wall looks good but havent got car together yet. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

Could you pop some pics of it when you get the car together? I would be really interested to see how it mounts. Everyone around here has the 2 point.
