Alignment suggestions

[Racinjason65]

Are there any specs outside of stock alignment numbers I should consider ?
The car is a 2020 GT PP1 with a Gen 5 Whipple, Steeda progressive springs, sway bars, end links, billet mounts, adjustable camber arms, adjustable toe links, vertical links, subframe braves, diff and subframe lockouts, toe link bearings and LCA bearings. The car is used mainly on the street and may see an auto cross event and the drag strip a couple times a year.

If you do a search, this question comes up a lot.

In short, without front camber adjustment, the stock camber is fixes. That leaves you with front and rear toe and rear camber to play with.

Front toe - 0 degrees is the factory spec, and its a good place to start. You can dial a smidge of toe in if you want a heavier on-center feel.

Rear toe is pretty important - dial some even rear toe in on both sides. Something like 0.2-0.25 total rear toe. This should help (a little) to keep the car straight when the rear wheels spin.

Rear camber - Factory spec (something like 1.5 degrees) is fine for a street car. For a handling setup you may go a little higher, paired with more front camber. Just get it as close as possible to the spec number for rear camber and toe. Just getting it in the ballpark like many common chain stores will do isn't good enough. Find a place which will do the job to your specs and get it w/in 0.1 degree for camber and within 0.05 for toe.

Thanks. It’s a friends shop, so they will spend the time to get it close as possible

For rear camber 1~1.5 degrees negative will work good for daily and some light autocross work, drag racing you’d want to be closer to zero...... maybe half a degree positive if you run drag radials

thank you. You guys make some amazing looking suspension parts. If I didn’t already have those parts( from other mfg’s) I’d definitely be ordering yours.

also, does your oil separator fit with a Whipple?
