    Why?

    Most suggest 16-18 on pump gas on a low compression shortblock.

    More compression increases cylinder pressure and reduces EGT. More timing has the same effect.

    Boost also decreases the need for timing.

    If you wanted accurate results you'd need dyno time, EGR sensors or better yet a pressure sensor in the combustion chamber.

    Then you could find your MBT.
