While I've never heard of it happening to a SVX, some cars the strut towers will bend into the center of the car some over time. This creates extra negative camber. My 94 SHO at one point had a minimum of -2.5 in front. great for autoX, not so much on the street. Had the alignment shop push them back out some then "secured" it with a strut tower bar. I never was in a frontal colision, just lots of miles on rough roads slowly pushing it in.
A collision guide from subaru will have the exact distance the strut towers should be apart if you are worried.

Good info. These struts are brand new so I don't know why they're giving me -1.7 deg. The problem is that the car pulls to the right and that's annoying me.

Interesting. The smaller bolt simply spins inside the hole so I'm not understanding how it's going to rotate my strut more. I'm missing something!
