After it was correctly aligned I take it? In my experience, that is not common. Usually there are very few shims to work with in a first Gen F body car when it is correctly aligned. The frame horns "Sink" inward after years of use causing negative camber (resulting in very few shims). Many Big Block sub frames we've worked on had to be pulled back into shape just to get them into specs.
