I would install it 5 to 6 advance or 102 or 103 intake lobe centerline.
talking with MP hotline is like talking with a walmart greeter except the walmart greeter likely knows more

my advice would be to NOT use that cam at all. The stock cam will work better w/ your combo. It won't matter how much you advance it.

A higher stall converter is also required with that cam.

and a good intake and headers and at least 3.91's if you have it, sell it and call summit. Their small cam will work good for what you have
