Alignment: Is Toe In Positive or Negative ?
I want to make sure the reference information in this table is accurate.
http://www.corvetteforum.net/c5/toom...6alignment.htm
I'm concerned with the following statement, "When the wheels are turned in, toe is positive ( + ). When the wheels are turned out, toe is negative ( - )."
Is it correct or backwards?

Toe-In is denoted by a positive sign.

Notice that the Toe values on the chart are 'Individual' or per wheel.
Total Toe will be 2 x Individual Toe.
My vote is that traditionally, toe specs were stated as Total Toe. So in
fractional inches, it was understood that unless otherwise denoted, a
front toe spec of 1/8" meant 1/16" per side.
