I don't know what mine are at but I can look it up tonight when I get home. I have a Hunter P611 alignment machine & when I recalled the specs it only had one selection for the 78 trans am so I used that. I think I adjusted it about 6 years ago when I first bought the machine.
My thinking is I would remove all the shims from the rearward side of the upper control arm shafts then add shims to the frontward side until I got the camber in spec. then see what side of the car has the least amount of caster
& shim the other side to match. That way both side would be the same & be the most positive caster I could get without offset parts.
this is just my thinking, haven't looked that close yet. For all I remember, It might be out of adjustment room already. I have seen some cars have no shims at all & still not have enough +caster. maybe a slightly sagged inward frame?
