Default 1975 corvette

I have a 75 corvette with a Crate 96 to 2001 chevy 350 5.7L vortec engine and trying to set timing. Looking for any one who may have the same engine and where they set timing too. Currently I have it set for 12 deg. TDC Thanks

if you look in the GM Performance Catalog the 350 HO with Vortec heads uses 10 degrees initial and a total of 32.

is it carb'd or are you running efi with computer controlled ignition? if the former, what was said before is right... if it's the later, you need to look up the vehicle, but I think it's somewhere around 18 degrees
