If the initial is too high or too low then swap springs until the initial is where you like it.

I second this one, yesterday I got off the phone with Rick from Specialty Auto Parts U.S.A, Inc. the guys who make the Proform distributors. He is such a nice guy, does not try to impress you, does not talk down to you. And he recommended the exact same thing with the exception of reving it up high to like 3500 RPM to ensure you are all in, but pretty much the same deal, and with the distributor vacuum canister disconnected setting the timing to 36 degrees, than checking your initial timing just to see what it is
