Replacing the knuckles alone will give us 0.5º more negative camber. Adding to the equation the SuperPro bushes in the control arms can give us up to 0.5º more negative or 0.5º less negative from that new position (that's 1º of adjustability total) = up to 1º more negative total. The opposite is back to the stock position. When they say 1º it really means it's 0.5º one direction and 0.5º the other (as opposed to 1º more negative).
As a result the most positive value is going to be the value we had before knuckle replacement and the most negative is going to be 1º less. e.g., if the camber before these 2 upgrades was -1º we should be able to adjust it from -1º to -2º, if before the upgrades it was -1º15' we should be able to adjust it from -1º15' to -2º15', etc.
