Default Front End

When setting up the front end, how much camber angle do you use? I've got a shake in the front end that starts at 75 MPH and doesn't go away. Tires are balanced, wheels are round, front end is aligned. I've run out of ideas.

The ERA 427 cars are set for 0 degrees of camber, +/- 1/4.
