Default Quick Camber adjust?

Hi guys,

Would fully tightening the front camber bolt theoretically add the maximum amount of camber available with the standard bolts?

I’m currently running .3 front and 1 at the rear, but would really like to quickly add some more to the front.

Being new to suspension setup I’d appreciate any advice, especially from anyone who has made changes to camber themselves. I know that caster plates or bolts would be much better, but getting the most of standard will do for now.

Or is it just not worth touching without the correct kit. Speaking of kit, this is a pretty impressive way of checking yourself;

Thanks in advance,

So the caster will apply camber as the wheel turns
How much caster though, currently running 2.55?
