The specs for alignment may well be ;
Castor = 3 deg 50' positive
Camber = 30' + or - 15' positive
Toe-in = 1/8"
but 1/8" toe in is a lot for a tight front end with radial tires.
To have the car drive straight on a flat road, you want the caster & camber
equal side to side.
If you want it to lead left a little to compensate for road crown, have the
left wheel camber a little more positive than the right.
My car has about 1 degree negative camber, 3 1/2 degrees positive caster,
and the toe set as close to zero as I could get it and still have slight toe
in. (toe out tends to make the car wander)
Happy Motoring
