Why do you want to adjust the castor angle? What are the benefits? (seriously, I'm not being facetious!)
Most adjustments and suspension geometry setups I've ever seen have kept both castor and king pin inclination as standard and tend to just alter camber and toe in/out.

I too am curious about castor. I don't have a 964 though.

4.1 degrees of caster max is in the normal range on a 964/993 chassis. Caster is adjusted via the lower ball joint, not the upper camber plate. I have seen a factory 993RSR (GT2 Chassis) with 6 degrees of caster and I know the pro drivers preferred that car to its sister car, however, I don't know what else was different between the cars.
