ok i did talk to the shop again and my caster is -1.0 degrees from where the factory spec is.everything else is to factory specs and he told me the reason it was not a problem is because it is the same on both sides of the car. i have drove the car about 30 miles since and other than the car being lowered and riding slightly stiffer it handles great the shop told me i should drive it for a month and bring it back in for a free alignment check so we could compare #'s from the first one so i think that is what i am going to do.

1 degree less than stock is no problem, and is a far cry from -1 total. A loss of some caster is normal from lowering, it's fine.
