on the mk website there is a manual for the build, near the end is the recommended base set up then you can fine tune from there

Toe should be parallel to a tiny amount of toe-in. on the front say. 0 to 0.125. essentially you want to as close to parallel as possible but avoiding
toe-out.
At the rear a bit more toe-in aim for say 0.125. again avoid toe-out. at all cost, toe-out on the rear can be nasty.
.
Camber really depends on what use you put the car more negative camber on the front gives better turn in and less under steer at the expensive ofbtyre
wear.
Try 1 degree negative all round.
Camber should be set before toe-in

Rear toe is fixed on the Indy unless you start shimming. Mine reads as 1.5 degrees.
I have 1 degree of toe at the front, 1 degree neg camber and 6.5 degrees of caster.
