Calculate the length of the upper shock arm that will give you the
camber you want, heat it and bend it. I believe that is the way the
Aussies used to do it on Healey's. Alternatively, you could use the
Moss upper A arms and maybe copy them shorter or slot them.

Hi All
I am preparing a 1964 MGB for vintage racing and have a question that I hope
someone out there has an answer for. I am using front springs that will
lower the front of the car about 2", thereby changing the camber
drastically. What must I do to get the camber back to about 1 to 1.5deg
negative? I would like to use offset bushings on the inner pivots and turn
them so they reduce the excessive camber but have not been able to find a
supplier. I have some bushings on order from Seven but it has been two
months. Any ideas on how to adjust the camber or leads on a supplier of
offset bushings?
Thanks
