John,

That camber would be 1 deg negative.  This should be a good place to start.
If your car is pushing, it most likely is not your camber that is the
problem. Tire pressure and suspension stiffness ratio front to back is most
likely the problem.

Make your front less stiff and make the rear more should reduce the push.
Also a way to induce balance or oversteer is to use trail braking.  I don't
recommend it, but some people use it.
