Topic: 836 timing advancer Q? guesses?

[Don R]

 I started this question last week in the regular forum but it's more for the performance guys. E bay 836 kit, Kenny Harmon F cam, mild port job and chamber smoothing on a k4 head, new stock valves, APE springs, etc, yoshi style 4--1 pipe with baffle and early 4 cable carbs with 130's. It's got awesome midrange and I haven't really got into the rpm's yet, my tach is a bit iffy.

 I just put on a pamco that was previously also on a K4 so I swapped the advancers and it timed out and advanced as it should stock. I also found an early advancer from a K0  with the deeper notches for more advance and an F2 advancer. My question is, as a rule of thumb would more advance be useful on this motor, and what RPM should I be seeing it begin and be all in by?  Hondaman spring mod?
 
 I have an old goldwing for cruising and a stocker for styling. This is for having fun on. Cooling and mileage are not a factor and I have regular access to race gas.  We had a 383 small block chevy that loved 41 degrees timing so I know engines are all different. 684 hp on gas.

 The early advancer's been in the sun in a jar of vinegar all day, it was buried in the dirt on an uncovered end of a 104xxxx engine left outside to decay. I of course, still have it and plan to split it soon. lol. If it cleans up I'll use it, otherwise I'll move the weights to the K4 advancer

 Cool, I need some Sandcast recessed key plugs too. My secret source had keys but only one with the plug on it. She said $5 each, I gave her $20 for the plug key.

 Maybe i'll gather some parts and find a dyno, that'd be a blast.
