68 camaro alignment ?
I installed the hotchkis front/rear spring set up on my car and haven't gotten it realigned since the changing the springs. I need to have it aligned because driving it the way it is not so fun. I have an AGR steering box with KYB shocks (bilstein in the future). I end up feeling EVERY groove/bump in the road and the steering is so sensative. I was wondering if a "stock" alignment specs will work until I can tear it down and put the guldstrand mod and/or tubular UCA's. Any info would be appreciated.

The hyper sensitive steering feel is probably due to toe (out) change caused by dropping the ride height combined with the factory bumpsteer curve. I`ll bet you`ve got some + camber now too. I`d set the toe first,at say 1/16"-1/8" in. If you`re doing the other mods very soon you can probably get away with setting the camber at 0 with a carpenters level at home. If it`s gonna be a little while you should do a full alignment. I`d shoot for -.5* camber,+5* caster and 1/16" toe in for starters. Marcus SC&C
