Default Drag CRX alignment (what do you guys suggest?)

I'm getting towards the end of my build and it's just about time for a wheel alignment, figured this is the best forum to post this in since here's were all the drag race guys are at

The car is primarily for Drag Racing but will be street driven so I need a alignment that will feel good on both the track and street, but I am more concerned with track performance (straight line stability)

This is the suspension setup...
-Ksport kit with extra rear pair of 1000lb springs (for the track)
-Ingalls front camber kits
-Wicked Tuning rear camber kits
-Full-Race traction bars
-Function7 rear lower control arms
-Lenso 13x7.5 with M&H 23x8x13 slicks
-Lenso XPD-R 15x3.5 skinnies with M&H 24x3.6x15 tires

You can see the entire build here> https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2086488


So what do you guys recommend for:

FRONT:
Camber, Caster, Toe, and distance from fender to slicks

REAR:
Camber, Toe, and how much higher than the front should it be

just set it up to stock align specs...you'll be fine since the chassis is still in its stock form, except for it it being lowered a bit...

It would be great to corner balance the car for best results.

Throw the weight up front for drag.

Jack up the car to the height it is when you launch and align it from there...
