I didn't know that and will take it into consideration. This 307 has 283 power-pak heads and a mild isky cam in it, so I'm not sure if that initial timing still applies.
I think I've decided what to try: install an adjustable vacuum advance and play with all three settings (initial, vacuum, and mechanical) until it runs well without ping. The tutorial I mentioned above seems to make sense to me and will try to follow that.
This whole thing is an adventure for me! Keep any other advice coming!
Thanks
