At 1", you shouldn't have any rear axle centering issues unless you've got much bigger than stock rubber sizes back there or are running 2004 and earlier wheels. IOW, the adjustable PHB can probably wait if $ is a concern.
The alignment you will need, though there may be some choices in what you need to get in order to adjust it. An alternative to C-C plates is camber bolts, though I will mention that some folks don't care for this approach as the bolt size is slightly smaller. If you can reliably measure camber the way the car sits now you might get some idea ahead of time whether camber correction will be required or if it's going to end up close enough for your driving to be optional. If you've got a level place to set up on, this is not as difficult as the $$$$$ alignment racks make you think it is.
