If it's on ported vacumn it won't make any difference at idle speed.
I 'd say adjust your timing by the vacumn gauge to get the best idle and clamp er down. Then drive it and seen how it performs. If hard starts show up back it down in approximately 2* increments until it starts good again hot.

You know tuning the engine to achieve best idle somehow doesn't make good sense to me since we don't drive down the road at idle speed.
