I wouldn't want to use the aftermarket bolts for two reasons. First, I don't believe they are legal in FS. Second, I do HPDE's and would not trust their staying together under that stress. I have seen the aftermarket bolts come apart on the track. It's not pretty when they do.

However, I really want the additional camber. Since camber plates are not legal in FS, my only choice is the Ford bolts.

You may be able to eke out a tiny bit more negative camber by taking up every possible bolt to hole clearance in the direction of more negative camber.

Norm,
Yes to using all the slop in the bolts I can to maximize negative camber. I will also flip the tires on the rims as needed..
Thanks
