Default Fuelie Initial/total timing

I have a 57 bone stock 283 hp corvette that I run on 105 octane leaded. I’m curious as to what others with similar cars have set their initial and total timing to?
Also have a 5 gas analyzer and looking for specs to tune with it.
Thanks,Bob

I ran my 61 FI at 14 degrees initial and 38 total timing at 2,900 RPM on pump gas. This is also what I use on my stock 64 FI car using pump gas.
