Default Starting point for D4?

Following some pretty rubbish performance from my D4, a new speed was required and I fitted this afternoon, last run the brakes and steering were pretty rubbish.

Anyone any idea where I can find a basic setup to start her off on?
The speedo should take care of the brakes, but I need the steering sorted out, it pretty bad for understeer?

Like to find out how much toe/camber/caster etc and if possible someway to measure it, hopefully without the use of specialist tools and setup board. I'll get round to all that, but I would like to set it up as square as possible and with proper geometry ie: toe/camber/caster ?

I took of the linkages this evening and used a digital micrometer to check all were at the same length and with matching distances on the turnbuckles. The rear is toed in as standard and I cant see any way to adjust for less/more toe-in, but the front can all be adjusted as normal.

Anyone help?
