I think you want Z06 specs with .025 negative camber if I remember right!

well i do the alignments for VHP here in orlando. you can still use your factory specs if you choose. if you want better cornering without increase tire wear, then go for -0.75 camber in the front and -0.50 camber in the rear. if you don't mind the drive, i can align it for you.

The Z06 specs, -.75 camber etc, are a good combination of handling and decent tire wear. If you are only doing street driving, non-aggressive cornering, then go with the OEM specs for your car.
