Re: Big Block ignition timing
That should be in the ball park. Just listen out for any detonation while driving and if you are getting any now you may want to try it at 34 degrees total with vacuum advance disconnected.

Re: Big Block ignition timing
Both my big blocks seem to love about 18* initial and 36* total.
