point the pinion down 2-3* and see what it does. go back and forth from there and see if it gets better. some adjustable shocks will help too.

I'm with Stew, I said it in another thread, just by eyeballing it, your pinion should point towards the ground slightly. If you put an angle finder on it, it should read -2,-3 or so, mine works best at -3.5, but like I said. It may not be the case for you, you're just going to have to experiment to a certain extent.

The long bars are basically an anti-wrap setup and they'll accomplish that pretty much however they're setup, but if you get them dialed in correctly, they'll do a lot more for you. If you think of the actual forces that are taking place in that suspension during launch, The long bars serve a much greater purpose besides just an anti-wrap system.
