    What would be a safe total timing to go with? the engine is running 10-10.5 to 1 compression and performer RPM cam?
    and how fast do I want it to advance.

    Start with 36 deg. full in by 2800-3000. If thats a little lazy bump it up to 37-38. Haven't run across too many BBFs than need much more than that.
