MG MG Y Type - Technical Data : Wheel Camber Query.

Wheel alignment/wheel camber on my YB ( YB1066 )requires attention.
Workshop manual states wheel camber to be NIL (+/- 1 degree) David Lawrence (Let There Be Y's, page 56) agrees with this for YB.
Y type website, (technical data for YB) states wheel camber to be 1 degree neg.(+/- 1 degree)
It states same setting for YA/YT.
According to David Lawrence,the 1 degree neg. setting applies to YA/YT only.
Would such a difference in setting be of any great significance?
Can anyone help/advise Please?
Many thanks,
Pat Kiely.

I accept full responsibility for this and apologise that it did not get caught on our proof reading of this page.

The error has been corrected and Camber of the YB front axle is NIL +/- 1 degree.

If you find any more discrepancies Patrick, please let me know.
