Going to get my car re-aligned for AX. What sould I look for: Front camber, front toe
Rear Camber, Rear Toe.

If it matters, the Set up is: 205/50/15 VRacers on 15x7 wheels. 22mm front sway bar, 22mm front Tbars, 180#rear springs

I will be taking the car to Fordahl Motorsports, and they know their shit, but I want to know also. Idea's? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif)

What is the max neg camber for the front, with the stock strut mounts?

It seems to vary from one 914 to another. You will gain some neg camber when the front is lowered. On my car, the combination of lowering it and adjusting the strut mounts all the way in allowed 1.4 neg camber on the right front, which dictated what the left front would be.

Without lowering your car, if you're lucky, you may see 1 degree. So, whatever you can set the front at, you might want to consider setting the back camber the SAME as the front, or, no more than 1/2 degree MORE than the front.

1/16th inch toe-out in the front will make it turn in better. It will wander a little on the street, but I find it to be no big deal.

If you're going to get coil-overs before too long, I would wait on the corner-balancing, since it may cost you an additional 100.00 plus. And once you get the coil-overs, you'll probably want to lower it a bit, just because you can.
