Default Possible to flip tein coilover top mounts (like BC's)

As above, going to fit a set of tein master flex this weekend and wondered if it is possible to do the BC top mount flip and rotated fitting to get more castor???

Of course! You can do that with any camber plate on this platform. Just be gentle and judicious with your impact wrench when you tighten the top nut back on. I've my share of sheared off upper spigots from neanderthal mechanics going crazy with torque.

Here's a great pic documenting a bunch of ways camber plates were oriented at the national championships in the US for autox back in 2007.
