The distributor included with the fuel injection is all electronic. There are no vacuum lines to it at all. The timing and vacuum advance is done through a tablet.

From the specs of the engine it says 32-34 at 3500 rpm. That’s a pretty lazy timing curve, but that is where I would start, as it is what the engine mfg recommends.
The tabled has the ability to do you want.
12 initial plus the 15* in the vac advance setting. Will give you 27* of idle timing
If it pings or knocks when you punch it, you can back the initial to 10, or 8 and add 2-4 to the vac adv setting to make it 17-19. You want no less then 20* TOTAL idle timing. I would shoot for 24-28.
