Have the car running again and was wondering what we should set the timing to.

 

mine is set right before 11 with the performer cam at 750rpm and the vac advance plugged. and im pulling right at 19 inches vaccume . i do thing i need to back it off a little though because its a little hard to start when hot sometimes. but every engine is different

 

You could alter the timing curve in the distributor and back that idle timing off, get something more driveable without losing power.
