Switch Z1 out for a DD with higher evasion, like Shimakaze or Yukikaze. Actually, just use your CL/DDs with the highest evasion stats (make sure to have 4+ DDs). ASW from equipment counts for a lot more than base ASW. Equipment should be 1 depth charge  1 sonar 1 damecon   on any DD/CL that isn't the flagship, and 1 depth charge 2 sonars on any DD/CL that is. If you're bringing Yuubari Kai add one extra sonar. Retreat if anyone goes to red before preboss. Retreat if more than 2 ships go to red at preboss.

I wouldn't recommend a CV, I'd recommend a BB for a second shelling phase. A fast BB for evasion bonus. And maybe to take out stuff at the preboss node to increase your fleet's survivability.
