New engine tuning

alright guys, need some opinions here. I have recently put an l69 out of a monte carlo ss into my 82 z28. it has an edelbrock performer intake, and edelbrock 600cfm carb, and flowtech headers with full exhaust. I was wondering what i should set the timing at and if i should go for a smaller carb.

The carb size is just right. Set your inital timing 4-6* advanced.
