Car is a 66 Belvedere, Stock suspension, /6 T-bars, 90/10 shocks, radial tires. Superstock springs in rear. I have the factory service manual, but not sure those settings will be the same with radials. More strip than street, going down the track the nose stays pretty high. What caster/camber/toe should I be aiming for? Should I set everything at static height, or mimic it going down the track? Car currently pulls right a little, so I want to check it out. Also, are there any worthwhile alignment shops in the detroit metro area? Or would I just be better off buying a C/C gauge and making some turn plates?
