I'm running about the same kind of car but I have my RR on a coil over behind the axle. Everything I read is that the RR needs to be either on top of the axle or behind because if it is in front of the axle you will unload the spring when entering the corner. I also moved my brackets closer to the rear so my links are shorter. Put your pull bar at 20 degrees and put your J bar at a 5-7 inch rake. right link 5 degrees uphill to the front and left link at 15 degrees to start. I think you would like a stiffer spring for the left rear. Around a 225 so you can drive off that left rear coming off.

Disagree on the stiffer left rear for sportmod. The softer your left rear is the more it will help the car get up on the bars. He could actually go softer on the left rear than what he is, we were with our car.

Yes putting the coil opposite to the right of the axle would help you a lot, if it had, then share your experience.
