It's good like it is. It drives great, no issues anywhere. Maybe just a bit of a stumble when lugging it with the primary side about half open, but giving it just a bit more gas clears that right up.

I guess maybe that means it wants a bit more advance say at 1000-1500 RPM with high vacuum...right? and as soon as that vacuum drops (throttle opens) take that advance away so it doesn't detonate.
I can't imagine you are going to surpass 20". I say try it out. It would only take a few key strokes to change it back.
