Just guessing but if you raise the inner camber link mount until it makes the two lines parallel then they intersect at infinity(or not at all) and your roll centre is at track level.

If you raise it still further then the two lines will intersect on the other side and your roll centre will be below track level.

Neither of these sounds good.

In addition, I think that it would make the tyres lean out a lot! If they are a rounded profile then that probably won't have much effect but if they are a flat profile then you would probably run out of tread.
