Engine timing.

just a quick one. ive browsed a thread before where someone with a 300 was looking for more horsepower. one suggestion was that he advance the timing of his engine 2.5-3 degrees. i was just wondering what fiddling around with the timing of the engine has to do with horsepower. i know that advancing the spark is better if the engine runs at high rpm's but id like to know a little more. any help is appriciated. thanks.
