Default coilover front suspension HELP!!

hey i just put coilovers in the front of my 79 capri and i guess im gonna need some kind of caster camber plate because the bushing it pushing out. the kit im using uses the original front struts, it slips over it its made by qa1 will any caster camber plate work with it? i dont need like crazy adjustability i only did it beause i went with a full tubular front suspension( A-arms, k-member) and the k member didnt have spring perches. so let me know what i need to do will these work?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33581

I went with mm c/c plates, and there should be spacers/bushings so the strut doesn't come up to far and kiss the hood
