All sounds ok for the front of the car. On a live axle car it's not
possible to have static negative camber at the rear.
When reading up suspension in most books, especially the new ones you have
to consider how the live axle works.

OK - I'll wade in to this mess...
Sway bars obviously reduce body roll by coupling the suspension on the left
side of the car to the suspension on the left. By design the sway bars
reduce the degrees of body roll by increasing roll resistance without
increasing
spring rate. In a race car you want to see about 1 to 3 degrees (radials
differ from bias plys) negative camber for maximum traction. Reducing roll
resistance will reduce traction losses due to camber change (the heavily
loaded
outside front tire will go positive as the body rolls).
