Still trying to map out a timing curve
There is no vacuum or mechanical advance. The advance it locked out. The only curve it gets is the one I program in. It is set at 36 degrees and will not move from that point. The curve I have pictured gives me start up timing of 11 degrees, idling at 19 degrees, then ramping up to 36 degrees by 4000 rpm. My rev limiter is set at 6400 and the burnout rev limiter that is set to go as long as the line lock is depressed is set for 5000 rpm. I'm trying to maximize my power and get a very usable timing curve.
I believe you are making things more complicated than need be. If your timing is 'locked' like you say, there is NO ADVANCE CURVE. If your timing was locked, the car would start and idle at 36 degrees and stay at 36 through whatever rpm you go to. When you have the start up timing at 11, idle at 19 then 'ramp up' to 36 at 4,000, THAT by definition is an advance curve.
Like I said previously and what Louis has corroborated, your initial timing should be at least 20, probably 22-24. Forget about start retard. You may have to experiment with how much initial can be tolerated before the starter kicks back, if it does at all.
Again, the general idea is to run as much initial as you can and limit mechanical to arrive at your total. Once you get your initial dialed in, focus on getting the remainder of the timing all in by 2,000 rpm because 4,000 rpm is 10 years too late. Those two ideas are really all you should be concerned with.
I think the fancy programmable gadgetry is adding unnecessary complexity. You got your total advance number, all you have to do is figure out how quick to arrive at it and how far you need to go from your initial.
