I used Dick Drenske's delrin offset bushings and have 5 degrees....I think more then any other mod to chassis or suspension this was probably the best bang for the buck.....noticable BIG improvement at 150-180 mph.

I have used Marino's offset front bushings. 

They are installed in my factory GT5-S. 

I didn't measure before-and-after castor settings, but there was a
noticeable effect in reduced hunting. It didn't transform the car into a
completely different animal, but there was a noticeable difference in the
amount of effort required to go straight. 

Worthwhile in my book to any wide body car with tramlining issues.

He says they add 1 1/2 to 2 deg.
