Canyon carver setup

Hey all!
I had a plans brewing in my head and I'm not sure how to carry it out. My car is a 1ss non MRC and I am looking to set it up for canyon carving and occasional auto-cross. I mainly want to stick with suspension, chassis and alignment mods as the camaro’s power is more than enough for my roads. I’ve been getting mixed messages across the board. I am hoping someone could shed some light on what the best mods/alignment setup for a canyon carver and occasional autocross use would be?

Solid rear cradle bushings, track alignment with -2.5 camber F & -1.5 camber R, sticky Extreme performance category 200 tread wear tires, stiffer sway bars.

Ditto. I'd prioritize alignment first, then tires, then suspension components in terms of gain per dollar.

In addition to bars and rear cradle bushings there's also more suspension links/knuckles off the ZL1 1LE that could be swapped on to further stiffen your suspension due to stiffer bushings and spherical bearings being used in those parts. Lastly, there's also DSSV dampers, but the return per dollar on those isn't nearly as good as the other mods.
