Item 1: The only difference between the original Avanti and a "II" is the angle of the body on the frame, the 79 being more level. There is a slight weight difference, as the GM engine is lighter that a stude, but this is dealt with using lighter duty front springs. The alignment specs on the above page are accurate, pay special attention to the toe-in, as you most likely use radial tires. Be sure that your frame is level before setting the numbers. If you have larger tires in the rear, it will raise the frame up and screw up the settings. In the opposite direction, the rear leaf springs may be weak and cause the rear to sag a bit. Some conscientious alignment shops will deal with this, making sure the tires are inflated correctly, tightening the wheel bearings beforehand, etc . Most likely, you'll have a little slop in the king pins, but a good dose of stiff grease can help here before you drive over to the shop Item 2: Hopefully, you found a shop that knows how to actually set the alignment. There are many that will say they can, but can't find the adjustment fittings. If you have to tell them, then watch them. The camber is set by removing the grease fitting from the rear cap of the upper outer steel suspension pin, loosening the king pin pinch bolt and inserting a 1/4 inch allen wrench through the grease fitting hole into a recess in the end of the pin. The upper trunnion, where it is held by the kingpin pinch bolt, is milled on an offset and one complete turn of the upper outer equates to a full range of camber and 1 degree of caster, depending on which way you turn it. The upper inner pin which has rubber bushings on each end, also has the frame mounting holes offset and can be flipped over to give more camber, altho this pin is usually assembeld with the max adjustment already outward. I just added this in case you may have an odd camber problem, you can look to see if the offset is correct. The bulging side of the pin should be toward the engine. .
