Mk indy set up

Hi people and happy new year to you all! Rite the Mk is 99% complete with only a couple of little jobs left to do one of them being getting the suspension and geometetry set up (not going for iva just had a very long term rebuild) its the old indy chassis with outboard suspension and Gaz shocks and 15" wheels with 888's currently has 150lb rear springs and 300lb on the front the car is fitted with a 2003 Yamaha R1 motor and will mainly be used for road spirited driving and a few track days could anyone give me some base settings for caster camber toe ride height and ideally spring rates I intend taking it to be done properly by a local specialist near horncastle just wanted to do as much myself as poss really all help and feed back will be greatly appreciated

Thanking you all in advance

Do you need 300 lb front springs for a bec, seems too much to me ?

On my Haynes inboard ZX9R (which is similar) I had 200 on the front and 250 on the back seemed about perfect to me. Your best bet is contact MK they will definitely know the correct spring rates.
