Default caster settings for EF track car

Hey

having high speed stability problems with our EF track car. At the end of any long straight the car starts darting back and fourth, Camber is 3 deg neg up front and 3.5 in the rear. Toe is 1/16" toed in in front 0" rear. Just removed our stock from cross member and installed the Innovative Mounts unit but we are also using King Pins spherical bearings front radius rod bearings. I want to check the cast or add as munch as possible to see if that solves the problem. Anyone know the stock specs for caster on the 1991 hatch?

Can anyone confirm this may be the cause of the high speed instability

id change to:
front 1/16 toed out
rear zero toe.

i dont think your caster would matter going straight.
