Does anyone know what the castor angle on a Griff/Chim should be?

A recent thread about electric power steering mentioned that reducing the castor angle would lighten the steering without upsetting the self-centreing action too much. SC-Power sell a kit ( not on their website just yet) redividing the 8mm top ball-joint spacer into two unequal spacers to reduce castor.

Has anyone tried this and if so does it have a noticable effect on the steering effort? Will be interested to read any replies.

Thanks for that Quinney. Looks like I may be the first if I try these spacers.
