Camber plates on 2001 c5z
Alright I have searched and can't find anything. I'm trying to setup my car for the drag strip. I want the rear camber at .5 positive camber. I know about camber plates but it seems they all are made for more negative camber. Will they go positive? How do they work exactly?

I don't think you need anything to get to your desired adjustment. I could be wrong. Have you looked at it and tried to obtain the desired camber with the installed cams on the A Arms?

the rear lower arms have a single eccentric cam bolt. you can get +0.50 camber with them. camber plates are for cars with struts, not shocks.

You adjust rear camber by loosening and adjusting BOTH lower a-arm bolts. In the front, you loosen both lower a-arm bolts to simultaneously adjust camber and caster. After setting camber and/or camber and caster, you adjust toe by adjusting the tie rods.....
