Tuning on a 3 link Swing arm shocks on Trailing arms with a pullbar and short J bar. Camaro Clip front. 54% Left 54% Rear 245 Bite on a 900 LF 1000 RF 350 LR 325 RR Struggling with drive off and tight in. Short Bar 2" Rake Top hole on Pinion. Suggestions. I have a decent understanding of a swing arm but setup seems to vary alot

Bite should be close. Front springs look heavy. How much travel are you getting in the front ?
Pull bar to the left side of the rearend and the chassis ?
Be sure that the short bar is not limiting body roll. Try even with pinion and less angle in it.
I never had any luck with the shocks mounted to the trailing arms. Always ran them on the birdcage behind. Only ran a swingarm car for about 3 months so I don't have a lot of experience with them.

Depending on tire I'm thinking you need more rear percentage

Add stagger and wedge.
