I’ve done some research on this topic and information is very scarce! Or maybe closely guarded by race teams. I’m running the period correct wheels and tires, which are the bias ply Avons on 10.5” fronts and 17” rears. My car is mostly a street/show car although I also plan to do non-competitive track days for fun as well (no wheel to wheel racing). The info I’ve found seems to center around these specs with minor variations:
Front camber: -0.5 degrees
Rear camber: Neutral
Front caster: 5.5 degrees
Rear caster: 5.5 degrees
(minimum bump steer)
Front toe: Neutral
Rear toe: 3/16” toe in
Front toe seems the most inconsistent, and perhaps it’s just down to what the driver prefers. For a street car I’ll probably run it with a smidge of toe in for stability.
I’ve also seen positive rear camber suggested before, but I’m not sure how that would be good for a racing car. If anything I think I’d run just a smidge of negative (like 0.1 degrees) just due to how wide the rears are combined with the rather tall sidewalls.
Any thoughts from those with access to the real or continuation cars?
