I have a G-link in my 69 Nova - very similar setup. I also had wheel hop issues when it was first setup. Check your pinion angle too be sure it's where you want it, but also look at your spring rate, shock settings and tire pressure.

Try changing one thing at a time to see if it helps. I personally needed more spring rate. I had 200 lb springs and went to 250 to remove most of the problem. I then made the shocks a little stiffer. Does the Ride Tech set up have multiple positions for the upper and lower arms to move your instant center? Because that could help also...
