Great to see another Stalker out running this weekend. The family and I were west of you, running at Eagles Canyon. My son spent the day on track with me. It was an awesome experience for both of us.
.....love the spin. I suspect Croc will put you up for some type of award.:jester:

Are you looking for a classic chassis Stalker, later model with IRS, or does it matter? I have the classic chassis. My car, while it can be driven on the street, is more track oriented.

Traveling for a few days. When I get a break, I’ll find to rake file and post setup here.
Also, looked back through my build file (link in my signature). I did remove .25” from each steering rack tie rod end.
Mike, the classic chassis Stalker uses a straight axle in the rear. When Dennis designed the classic, he did so with a pre set amount of caster. As for rake, there are guidelines. I’ll dig through my old files, find and post here.
Been a while, and no longer using the Chevette steering rack, but if memory serves me correctly, you’ll have to shorten the steering rack tie rod ends a bit to allow toe adjustment.
I’m currently running zero toe and not quite 1 degree of negative camber.
Also, I’d highly recommend this mod for the LS1, especially if you plan on tracking the car:
