04 Alignment spec values

I know this subject has been beaten to death, but, I cant seem to be able to find a full set of current alignment specs on the forums. I have found partial settings, but, nothing definitive, complete and most recent.

I would like to start a discussion to document a complete and most current set of alignment specs for our Zs.

============================================

I just had an alignment done on my Jul 04' build date Z and these are the settings the dealer stated came out of their machine and are supposedly up to date settings (based on mechanic I spoke with.)

They use a Hunter alignment based on service writer discussion.

I typed the values into the table verbatim including the title which indicates the settings are for a 2003 Z.

I have my doubts based on the toe in values of .04 with a +/- tolerance of 0.04. I was under the impression, 0 tolerance was new setting for toe-in (if I am reading the values correctly.)

I am a total novice to alignment values (I just drive 'em.) so lets keep it simple
