Touchy subject on here but I'll stick my head out mainly because I'm very proud of my trucks last highway trip.
Bone stock 5.9L Magnum from a injected van. In an 87 reg cab shortbox pick up. With a 5 speed manual cruise rpm is 2200. 115km/hr or 70mph. 670 Street Avenger, dual plane M1, short headers and single ex. I run mine on manifold vacuum. Straight highway will make no difference on ported since they both pull vacuum at cruising speed.
288km on 32L. That's 11.1L/100km. For our neighbours who don't know what a Roberston screwdriver is that's 24.3mpg.
My total timing is 30 and it comes in very early. I'm probaby cruising in total. My vacuum advance adds over 20 so it's probably over 50 anytime my foot is not in the carpet. Which by the way is not easy for me.
69 Super Bee, 93 Mustang LX, 04 Allure Super

Cant ans your Q directly but I'd set the initial/total/springs near spot on (IN ORDER) then hookup the vac can & get it (amt/slope) spot on. You want to work w it (1)at a RPM high enough to where the springs are already maxed out (total all in) and (2) at a steady part throttle (high vacuum) to where the cans' adv amt it can add is maxed out (3) shoot for (A) the most adv the eng will take (file the arm at the notch/limit the arms travel whichever is needed) w (B) the slope starting as soon (in hg) as possible (CW with a 3/32" allen wrench) staying just under the pinging point on (4) your hottest/driest day. EDIT this'll tailor it for what YOUR eng needs/likes

I run 35 degrees advance at 3500 rpm (small block)
I would think you want that all in by 2000 - 2200. Is there a specific reason for having total timing so late? Just curious, I run mine all in by 2000 or as close to it as possible.
