Default Pure drag race alignment numbers

Could someone tell me a good starting point for alignment on a pure drag race gen 4 Camaro? Found a sticky on it but they didn’t seem to have a strict drag number

TTT Ive always winged it. But far from knowing what Im doing. Id like some professional opinion as well
1/16th toe in at rest. 6-8 degrees of caster. a small amount of camber only because mine isnt adjustable. Ive been 206mph with it like that. Straight as an arrow.

Mine is 1/16th toe in and camber is as close to zero as we can get it. Castor is what the factory setting was. We jacked the front of the car up and watched the full range of motion until it picks the front tires off the ground and made sure toe did not change. Make adjustments to your bump steer kit until your toe is always in at any front suspension height.
