360 with 340 camshaft thoughts?

[pishta]

I pulled a cam out of an 86 360-4 CA truck and its lift was the same as the 340 auto cam. Was going to use it in a 273 but found an x268 for cheap. Didn't measure duration.

Never apart?

that stock cam will be just about the best grind for your 360 driven on the street.

So I've got an update, got the carb worked out enough to get the car running, now I'm working on the timing, and I've got a question. What timing does this setup that I have supposed to run at? I pulled out my vaccuum gauge, tach, and timing light out and this is where I'm at.

Setting 1: 22 degrees btdc, 1050rpm, 20hg
Setting 2: 18 degrees btdc, 950rpm, 18hg.

Both setting where with the distributor vacuum advance not plugged into the carb. Any thoughts
