OK I'll jump in and take a stab at it... how about: initial 12 deg, full 36 deg, all in by 3000 (heavy car)...
You'll need to modify the slots to limit the total advance to 24 degrees. Definitely run vac advance, opinions vary between ported and full (although the vacuum can has to be all-in at idle for the timing and idle RPM to be stable). Not sure how much vacuum your cam will have especially with only 8.9:1 CR.
You could contact Don at FBO for advice (and buy one of his timing plates too).
Interesting. We're close!
If anything, the engine will need a little more timing at idle because of the low compression and sporty cam (ie overlap).
I would not use Don's plates because they limit maximum advance,
Then the whole curve has to be shifted up - and that messes up the part throttle timing with vacuum advance.
