Ride heights should be 3 1/2" on both sides with the S7 spindles (underside of frame to top of lower control arms). I think caster is more of a preference number. When I was last at Mastersbilt, Keith said no more than 1 1/2* - 1 3/4* caster on the LF, and however much more you want your split at on the RF (say 2 1/2* - 2 3/4*). He didn't go in depth, but cited the jacking effect of caster as his reasoning. I think some guys run a lot more though.

Camber I believe they said around +3 1/2* on the LF and 4* - 6* negative on the RF. Probably debatable as well, but if nothing more, know that is the ride height they call for.
