timing advance question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm just wondering what amount of timing is easy on the starter? I may have worded it wrong before. Should I have the timing retarded to 20* or 15* or run full advance from starting rpms on up(just for starting)?
