Default VB&P front control arms

Anyone have experience with Vette Brakes and Products upper front control arms? I need more caster that the stock arms have. Is there an alternative to get more caster, about 5* positive?

The VBPs do what they say: You get more caster and they are lighter than stock. They don't have a bump stop, so you should not jump the car.
