Hey fellas i need some alignment help. do you guys have any specifications for front end alignment to give to alignment tech so i can set this puppy up. any help appreciated
Go to Vette Brake Parts and view/download their alignment specs. Borgeson recommends that you then increase caster to 3-4 degrees positive to allow for their component.
That should cover it.
Also van steel has good alignment specs. You may find that you can not get more than 3 degrees of caster with stock upper control arms. I also have a borgeson box and added van steel upper control arms for mor caster. It made a world of difference.
I could only get about 2.5 degrease of caster with the stock upper control arms and the car wondered all over the place. It also followed every rut and grove in the pavement. Now I have about 7 degrees of caster and it is like a different car. It drives perfectly striate and will not follow ruts or groves at all. It is easier to keep in a lane than my 2015 Malibu company car doing 80 which is the local speed limit. I also take the car to auto x and road course events and it does very well.
I have done a lot of mods to my car over the years and the 3 top best have been the borgerson box, the upper control arms and composite rear spring.
This is the best photo of the control arm that I have on my iPad

Is Borgeson steering really what you're saying you have?
