Thanks, but timing should be what to start? 140-160

I plan to follow cameron's advice, but I'd like to get her back out of my garage for a bit (it's quite driveable.

I just need to get the timing and carbs set so that I can drive w/o stalling for a few days before I retorque, re-gap, re-time, and re-adjust the whole thing.

These carbs, while in really good shape have always wated a rich mixture. I figured that it was because of the HIFs being on a B18, but now the settings are all wonky and I can't quite seem to get it right. I figure its due to the timing being radically adjusted.

So, what are the generally proper settings for timing at this stage?
0 TDC or should I advance it a bit?
