on a SOHC, all a cam gear will really do is change the powerband...i would set it to exactly normal then make adjustmets... so you have something to gauge.

I would start out at stock settings, then go one degree retard for every pound of boost. Example: if you put it on a stock 10 degrees advance and you want to run 6 psi, then set it at 4 degrees advance and make adjustments from there.
