Default serious positive caster in right front

Okay, bought a 91 crx a little while back and have been living with it pulling left. I did my usual string alignment, which usually works just fine...but didnt fix it.
so finally I bucked up and paid for a professional alignment.

Turns out I have slight positive caster on the left front and over 2 degrees on the right front.

Nothing looks bent and the bushings, although 200K miles old, are not completely gone and with a pry bar everything is pretty tight under there.

So, I'm thinking of just getting some camber/caster plates. I was planning on doing the entire suspension anyways, just wasnt gonna do it right now. Still have stock struts/springs and so on.

So, what brand is recommended for plates? I dont want to weld them in, so bolt in is preferred.
