Hey, can anyone help with a street setup for my 1969 Camaro? I’ve searched the internet and forums and found a few setups but with conflicting information (here’s one I bookmarked Muscle Car Front End Alignment Basics - Super Chevy Magazine)

I’ve just changed my front tyres as the edges were scrubbed off, I’m running a cpp big block suspension kit up front including drop spindles, 215/45/17 tyres up front and I plan on changing the upper and lower ball joints and outer tie rod ends and a set of these to lift the front about 1" Camaro Coil Spring Spacer, Front, 1967-1981 | 3789664 - Ricks Camaro Parts

So first question[*] would I benefit from fitting the 'tall' tie rod ends and upper ball joints? Or just the normal spec ones?

And[*] what would be a good wheel alignment spec for my car to stop it eating tyres for fun and drive well on the street? I can’t fault the drive as it is now it’s just the scrubbing of the tyres.
When the suspension kit was fitted about 4 year ago by the previous owner it was set to 3+ caster and ¾- camber, 1/8 toe in

scroll down to alignment specs.

 

The stock 1st gen Camaro suspension geometry sucks. IMO, you should take a look at Ridetech front suspension kits. I would not waste my time with the factory control arms.
