400 small block timing help

What do you guys recomend timing wise for a small block 400. It has a mild cam,headers,roller rockers, and a edelbrock intake. Book says 4* and thats what im at right now but another member said i should bump it up for performance. ive had it at 8* before and with my headers heating up the starter i had a bad hot start problem coupled with the timing. Ive wrapped the starter and ran bigger battery cables so i may not have that problem to the same degree now.
