Uh, don't you mean Negative camber? MG's (Midgets and B's) already have
(too much) positive camber.
 Most "trick" bushings are designed to reduce the amount of positive
camber, and in some cases, go negative.
 However, that's not to say they couldn't be installed "bass-ackwards" to
increase the positive.

backwards or any other way not intended by the manufacturer, the PO will
do so)
