Thank`s
Alright, again, you need at least 1* of caster for every 10 MPH over 100. On a '67 Camaro, don't get carried away with positive caster because the more you have, the worse your bump-steer issue will get and I don't know if you have the means to correct it. Early Camaros go negative on camber as the suspension rises so don't be afraid to put 1/8 to 1/4* of positive camber.
Before you start to set your toe, make sure that both tie-rods are equal length and when done make sure again. Don't worry about your steering wheel being centered. If your anal-retention won't allow your wheel to be crooked then you'll have to find another way to straighten it.
IF, if you want to take a crack at your bump-steer, you will more-than-likely need to lower the outer tie-rod either with spacers or by bending your steering knuckle.
IF, if you don't get carried away with positive caster, the bump-steer shouldn't be bad enough to even mess with.
