Default Question Regarding Caster/Camber Settings

After installing my caster/camber plates, I set everything up as best as possible using an angle finder so I can drive it down to the alignment shop. My angle finder probably isn't that accurate but I am getting way different settings from side to side, nor am I getting the negative camber I was hoping for. I'm only able to get about 2 degrees positive camber. Is it common to have different setting on each side of the car? Is there some tricks I can do to gain some more camber? Maybe the strut towers are made differently, I don't know. I keep thinking my frame is bent somewhere but I keep measuring and measuring and everthing is within a 1/16 of an inch. The pictures show the settings I came up with. I could really use some insight on this. Thanks.
