need setup info for track/autox

Hi, I've got a dead '76 911 I'm resurrecting as an autox/track day car. Initially I'm going to go with the stock motor (cause its what I've got) and tweak the suspension. My plan:

22mm F 28mm R torsion bars
sway bars off a '77 930
adjustable spring plates
poly bushings everywhere

thinking about the koni yellow adjustable shocks, anybody have a better sugestion?

16x7F, 16X8 or 9 R wheels, with carrera flares on the rear.

What suspension settings are recommended?
I've heard:
as much camber as possible in front (~1.5deg), 1/8" toe in

~2.5deg camber in the rear with 1/16" toe in

lower the car until the F roll center is on the ground, and preserve the front downwards rake

thanks for any info!

-steve

Your parts and alignment specs sound dead on for a track car. For autocross use, you may want to try front toe out (yes, toe out!) for quick turn in. However, don't try that for a big track with 3 digit speeds!
Also, for a set up like that, Bilstein sports are great, and won't let you waste your time messing with shock adjustments.
