For a track car, I think the front-end is fine. Just that the back-end is a little high. Typically when you use helper-springs, this requires re-indexing the torsion bars to restore ride-height to the original level without maxing out the adjuster. And you've got 1" taller-than-stock rear tires as well. Looks like rotating the T-bars by 1 spline and putting the rear adjuster in the middle of its range should do it.

Danno.. Thanks for the input. It's beginning to sound like I need to "buck up" and deal with the torsion bars. If I'm going to adjust them one spline, I might as well replace them all together with better siffer torsion bars.
I've only been putting it off since a well-skilled shade-tree mechanic friend of my did his and said it was a nightmare. But that was before we re-built (strike that,) built a "brand new" motor for my friend's (fletch's) 951.
If I can handle that and the R&R of my tranny, I should be able to deal with a torsion bar.
