Ok I知 putting on a pair of Global west upper a-arms and a set of adjustable LG motor sports lower a-arms. After this I値l need the front end re-aligned, so my question is what are a good set of specs to set the front end to? Take in mind I drive the car daily about 70 miles round trip, but also autocross on weekends.

Rob,
Depends on what you are trying to do. I get good tire wear with my current setup (20500 on the factory tires) and 8000 or so miles on the alignment and still have 1/2 tread or better left. For street, I'd stick to about .8-1.0 degrees negative camber, a "stock" castor setting (or 4.5 degrees works well) and 0 toe (not in or out). It's not too aggressive, but will inprove handling. Just my thoughts....

Thanks a lot man. I didn't have time to setup the alignment machine today, all I had time for was to rotate my tires. Too many kids kept asking questions about my car. <img src="https://ls1tech.com/threads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I'll get it done once I get back from vacation though. Those numbers look great BTW thanks a bunch.
