RE: Wuts the stock timing curve on the 5.0?
Oh'... thats 36* total timing. Not +36* on top of base timing. Well then that is closer to mine than I thought. I was just counting curve. Not including my base because it can be different. Glad that, that was mentioned.
P.S. It is carbed. Using a dual point dizzy.

That's very interesting stuff.
What would the ignition timing be during light throttle cruising. Say at a steady 60 or 70mph, in 4rth or 5th?

The base table for typical Closed Loop cruising is listed above. Simply look up the RPM and %Load you are at, then add the value in the ECT adder table. Also, add in any advance you have set at the distributor over the base of 10*.
By the by...
I think the only reason there would be a hp gain from running a cooler than stock T-stat, would be from getting the ECT temps lower (Actually the ACT temps would probably drop slightly as well...). I think the hp gain would be more from the timing increase than from the 'denser' intake charge.
This is just my brainstorming opinion though, feel free to argue...
