        Here is what is in the Tiger manual;
Castor = 3 deg 50' positive
Camber = 30' + or - 15' positive
Toe-in = 1/8"
All steering angles and dimensions must be checked with the car on gap
gauges.

        Try to get equal Castor around 3 to 4 or the most you can get, then
set the Camber.   I put in 1 deg negative camber on my Tiger.   Now set the
Toe-in; if you have the original steering rack arm get as close as you can
to 1/8".   I did not use the gap gauges or load the car as described in the
manual.
