Default Advanced Timing

Alright so this weekend I'm hoping to advance my timing but my question is what should I advance it to? The engine has fuel plate ground to a #0 and slid full forward, star wheel is turned a little and the "smoke screw" is screwd in. 4k gsk 60# valve springs. The head gasket was just replaced and when It was put back on we tourqued the head studs down a little extra. Stock h1c turbo and intake and straight pipe. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

16*-17* should do the trick and keep it reliable. I plan on having mine set to 16* when I have an "extra" $200 bucks kicking around.

what h1c? 18cm or 21CM??? The higher the exhaust cm the better the flow which means the more timing that can be put into it. Then again its a fummins . I love my 3rd gen 1500 and 12valve
