Default Clean Sheet Front End

Well folks here is my issue. I am designing the chassis for my 68 C-10 pickup. I have several 2 D layouts done and I am going back and forth on the direction I want to go. I am from a circle track racing back ground that says aggresive neg. camber gain is good. About 1.5-2 deg. per inch of travel. This has a RCH aroung 5" above the ground and will not move more than an inch in dive and roll. It also does not move r to l excessively.This is using a 60" track width with 18" lower arms and approx. 8" uppers at abot 15deg angle up to the ball joint. I set this up so far using a circle track pinto spindle with 10 KPI. Then I read some more about street and road race stuff and it seems that .5-1deg. per inch is what I am finding that arena. When I set things up to do that, my RCH is around 2" off the ground and moves all over the place up and down and right to left. I know from experiance that when the roll center moves alot left to right the handling becomes very unpredictable. I also am looking at the AFX spindles after seeing them on this site. I am going to be talking with ATS soon. Any comments on a clean sheet front end. I have seen posts in the past but I am hoping to guide this discussion towards my goals. I know there are a million things to look at and I am willing to give any imput I can. I am hoping through discussion to make some decisions. Thanks alot.
