Adjusting the length of your camber links and raising/lowering the ball studs does the same thing, but when you play around with the height of the ball studs it has a more subtle effect than if you adjust the length of the camber links. Does that make any
Have a look at this:
Less Roll: Shorter camber links/more washers under ball stud
More Roll: Longer camber links/less washers under ball stud
Adjusting Height of Ball Studs: Small adjustment
Adjusting Length of Camber Link: Big adjustment
As I wanted to have less roll I added a washer underneath the ball studs (front and rear) but I found that I had to turn the nut upside down so the nylon in it got a good grip on the thread and wouldn't come undone. So now I run with 3 washers under the ball studs for indoors on carpet.
Hope that is some help and right.

sort of right the camber link length changes the rate of camber gain in a roll
as the tyre camber will change from preset to 0 to + as the car rolls through a corner. the shorter the link the more more aggressive the camber gain will be usually suited for tight twisty tracks and the longer the camber link the lower the camber gains is usually suitable for long fast sweeping corners.
the roll center is changed by altering the angle that the camber link sits at in relation to the ground wheel and c-of-g. read elvos car handling guide for more info
