Default Kirkham alignment specs

I understand the front specs are -1/2 degree camber, +3.5 degrees caster, and 1/8" toe at 24", but what about the rear? Does -1/2 degree camber and zero toe make sense? This is for a street driven 289 fia car. Thanks!

I can hunt down my 427 alignment specs if you think they would help you and your 289 FIA.
