Finally got my GP in the shop for a front end alignment. They did a 4 wheel alignment and found the car to be very true, front to back! For the front end, the caster and toe are set to stock specifications. But, for the camber, I talked with Dave, the fellow doing the alignment, and discussed camber. He actually made shims for the upper control arms, to get the camber I needed for what I wanted.
The camber is set to a negative .5 degree. Stock calls for a positive .5 degree. Negative camber is when the bottom of the tire is out more than the top. This gives GREAT handling in the turns, especially with my 1 1/4" front sway bar. She sure hugs the road, in the turns, with those P245/60-14's dialed in up front!!
Below is a good link if you would like more info on steering setup. It is for a Buick Regal, but gives you the basic ideas to achive.
