I've been reading around on the web and see lots of options for alignment specs. I find it odd that they are so all over the map. In the Camaro it was easy, shove the adjusters to max + caster, max - camber, set the toe to 0 and done. But in the Miata some have more camber in front than back and others more in back than front. And the winner is?

But the more pressing question is does anyone adjust their favorite specs for the V8 and if so what do you change to accommodate it?

I am running 0*CAMBER in front & rear/ 0* TOE front & rear/ & MAX +* caster in front.

Really 0 camber? Never heard of going that low before.

From what I have read in the last couple days it appears there is not much that is V8 specific to alignment.

Yes. Really. More rubber on the road & no tire wear. I guess you could add a 1/2* if you wanted it to handle better, but I was looking for tire wear since I am running a staggered set-up & can't rotate them. Remember that the rear will "squat" under acceleration which will result in rear camber gain.

Good point! Thanks.

be good

street i'm 2* up front 1.5* out back - camber
as much caster as you can get into it and 0* toe

LOL! I was thinking about trying the opposite numbers you have (2 rear, 1.5 front) but now I have about 3 to 1 for folks that like more camber in back vs folks that like more in front. How in the world do you ever figure it out?!
