setting engine timing

i just recently rebuilt my 351w. it is .030 over, and has a new rv cam. ever since the rebuild it just hasn't run right. it seems sluggish and it coughs and misses if you try to start out slow. and it is alot harder on gas now. once it's going good you can stomp on it and it will pick up real good but it still doesn't seem like it's revving high enough even when it's on the mat. just sitting there idleing it runs perfect. i just would like to know whre my timing should be set.

also the carb was rebuilt too so that might need adjusted

thanks
