I have no experience with sierra uprights.
I would start from the book design, and modify according the measurement differences between the cortina upright and the sierra upright.
There are several software applications with which you can design/ modify suspension geometry. I think they can be found in earlier topics.
I would try to keep both upper and lower wishbones (almost) vertical (thus paralel) in ride height.

You may be better off asking in the chassis section of the forum rather than the Luego section.
