A little slice of advice; no amount of camber will provide flat tire wear on the stock FE4 suspension, as the dynamic camber loss and camber curve is non-conducive to good tire wear. Once you get acclimated to the car and reach its maximum pace, roughly -2.6 to -2.8 deg front will be about right to wear both the inboard and outboard shoulders simultaneously. If you're not routinely in HPDE advanced group or better, then you won't need that much camber to reach balanced tire wear. This is why I said earlier the best alignment is one that *you* find wears the tires as evenly as possible.

I ran -3.6 front, -3.0 back in my last track car. Most manufacturers suggest at least -3.0 for their track oriented tires. The suggested camber settings are what you can in theory achieve with a stock set up, not necessarily (or likely) the best set up.
