Matt,
I always adjust the main first and if pointing up, bring it in tight with tell tails streaming back on both sides. I then tighten the jib until its tell tails are both streaming back. That is about 6" between blocks. If I pull the jib sheet tight, the lee tell tail stalls out. I keep the jib traveler all the way in. Should I travel it out some and then pull the jib tight? Should I pull the jib tight in spite of the tell tails? Where should the shackle be on the holes of the clew plate in jib? I usually use the center hole.
