Default need alignment shop in north houston/spring/conroe

it only took 6 months, boy was i slowwww, but the car is now ready to go to an alignment shop. heads/cam/headers/exhaust/intake/cai/radiator/poly bushings/coil over shocks and the car sets where i want it so now in need of a shop that can fine tune the setting of the coil overs and set my bump steer. i am due east of the woodlands behind oak ridge and don't have a fuzzy feeling about the major tire/wheel/alignment shops that wants to just set things up according to their specs. any suggestions would be appreciated.

On 290 near Beltway 8. Between Gessner and Fairbanks, I believe.

Does anyone know if Frank or Sal has the rear bracket necessary to do the alignment properly?

I've spoken with the Shop Forman at a couple of dealerships, and they didn't know about it, and said no problem doing them.

I'd like to find someone that has that bracket for the rear so that the alignment comes out correct.

If you're referring to the special alignment tool needed to adjust the rear caster on a C7, if the shop doesn't know about it, I wouldn't trust that they have it. I haven't looked into it since I don't have a C7, but I'm willing to bet that if anyone had the tool, it would be Frank's.

well, i ended up taking the z to a local small repair shop and had an 'alignment' done on it just to take the car to serious hp over on 290 & beltway to have tuned without eating my tires on the way or during the tune. they said they could set my bump steer, but their definition of adjusting the bump steer and my definition are different. but getting on sal's website, they may be able to set my bump steer for me along with rolling the fender wells on my sons gto without repainting.
thanks for the suggestions.

Sal has been doing specialty alignments for a long time. They know their stuff and I wager any doubts you would have could be solved with a simple phone call.
