Re: Front end alignment 67 vette
vetteboy do you need street specs or race alignment specs?
I put a post up on one of the Vette forums Iam on and Iam sure someone there will have some insight. Jimmy |

Re: Front end alignment 67 vette
If this is a class race car with OE style suspension, for drag racing only, then, with the front end raised about 1-1/2" from static ride height, you need 1/16" to 1/8" toe in, 0 degrees camber, and as much positive caster as you can get.

I would contact Billy Nees. He did a great job on all our Corvettes.

It has OE suspension and will be a drag car only. Thanks for the information. Brett

Re: Front end alignment 67 vette
If you are using OEM type bushings, the settings will not stay put. Also, without some serious work, you will need to limit the front suspension travel to keep the toe and camber within reason.

I would love to see some pictures of your 67. Could you post some or email some to L79racer@aol.com. Some specs would be nice also. Thanks,
