I agree with RG. I've pondered many suggestions purported to improve the rear suspension on the Spitfire, fixed or swing spring. I also have the Competition Preparation Manual writ post KK. The last bit of information that shed some new light on the subject (for me) was the description of the axle and the radius arm being the lower A-arm. Wow! The post KK CPM suggests moving the radius arm inboard on the body (holes already provided, brackets required) and lengthening the radius arm. This would get the outer end of the axle back in the original static position but would change the dynamics some. An adjustable vertical link would allow ride height adjustments and a stiff, almost flat mono-leaf fiberglass spring would take care of wheel tuck.
