Amount of adjustment in stock strut tops?

What kind of adjustment is possible with the stock strut tops? I'm planning on getting a second set of control arms so that I can lengthen them about 3/4 of an inch. If I've calculated it right, that should provide 1.5 degrees of negative camber over stock. Now with the stock strut top, how many degrees of adjustment are present? Could I say move the arrow back and in to get another degree of negative for solo II and then move it out and in to reduce the negative camber to -.5 for street driving?

Save yourself time and headaches and get the ReSpeed kit. With the 4 positions that the strut tops can be turned, you have a choice of 0 or +28' of both caster and/or camber. Nothing in-between or anything lesser/greater.
