352 timing specs

I'm running a mostly stock 352 with edel performer intake and 600cfm 4bbl, dual exhaust and pertronix ignitor. it's got an open (paper element)air cleaner and 3 speed on the floor. other than that it's basically stock. what should i be running for my timing? it's running pretty bad right now; rough idle, not smooth until the secondaries are open and so on. im runnning about 14 degrees right now, so im thinking i need to back it off some. what do ya'll think?

well the chiltons manual says 6, but i set my 352 at 10 degrees and it runs about as good as it gets.

Hey i bumped it back to about 10 and it's running great. Feels strong as ever! 14 was just way too much, and after messing with the timing and idle mixture it's hot roddin again! thanks guys
