Well I have talked about it with my builder about the timing. It's not that I won't take his advice, I just wanted to hear more than one opinion. This is what my builder told me to do:

I would set your base timing around 10-12 degrees and your total timing at 34-35 degrees. I would set your distributor to have all it's advance in by about 3000 rpm. You may be able to run slightly more initial advance than this which is ok as long as you don't have a hard time getting it to start. But make sure your total doesn't go over about 35 degrees.

I have been talking with others locally, and they pretty much say the same. I have already recurved my distributor and adjusted the amount of advance it will allow. I think I am good to go. We'll see what happens. Thanks for your ideas and thoughts!
