It all depends on how far you plan on dropping your car. I think normally anything over 1.5" or so requires a camber kit on preludes, but its really a case by case sorta thing. Get the suspension set up where you want it, allow the springs to settle, and have an alignment. Once you get the specs from the alignment decide if you need camber and which one. Camber correction comes in varying degrees so it'll depend on the specs.

Anybody know how much the pillow upper ball mounts help with camber?

You can always run at factory height with those (but why). Check out Ingalls for front and I think Eibach for the rears.
