I agree wholeheartedly with the other posts so far - run as much advance as you can without pinging (within reason, of course!).

On my B21F, I can run 16BTDC initial. With the 19 mechanical, I get 35 max, which sounds pretty dern good to me. This is with 87 Octane CA swill.

Up to a point, higher advance will give better idle, more power, better mileage, and lower temps. Strange but true!
