Anywhere from 1 to 2 degrees of negative camber up front should give a nice street set-up. You can purchase non-adjustable camber bolts from rockauto.com very cheap. I'm not sure how much, if any adjustment you can make without the use of camber bolts. While 0 degrees toe-in is preferred for performance, a very slight toe-in (1/16") will make the car track much better at highway speeds.

Toe out helps with speeds, not in. It seems like thats what you meant tho.

Tamago is correct, toe out improves turn-in, not tracking straight. Toe-in basically points the wheels towards each other, so the car is "trying" to steer to the center, toe-out has both wheels pulling away from each other, or constantly "fighting" each other. Whichever way you favor, the car will move more quickly in that direction.
