You may have to modify your distributor to allow a bit more total advance by changing your advance bushing and trying to maintain 8-10 degrees initial with your compression (10+ to 1), so you have easier starting.

Cool!

Just checked it again. Hitting 36 degrees at 34-3500 rpm. I've got 91 non ethanol treated with 104 booster..
