The instructions and setup sheet don't match.
This can happen with any manual build vs. what the setup is in the back of the book. Setups are always changing. It might have been an oversight. Also the person that does the instructions has a car for visual reference. He might have seen something different then what the setup sheet shows and went with this setup. You best bet is to go to ty's page and start form there. As this will always have the most up to date, and you can get a base setup for most common conditions.

I have never used the manual when doing the setup of the car. As this setup might be older. Ask your local fast guy or search online for posted setups. Its always your best bet.

Just my 2 cents
