Default Toe?

Does anyone know the proper toe setting for an 87?
I am going to replace the rack tomorrow and want to get it close before driving to the alignment shop.

Thanks

I like zero all the way around...then fine tune it until it gets better mileage and feels comfortable on uneven roads. Alignment machines aren't very accurate and the techs usually put too much toe in it just because...they think it makes it more stable. Not a vette...needs very little toe in.
