Advance Curves Required

Can anyone please post, or tell me where I can find, advance curve plots for the following distributors:

74-77 2.7L 911S 0 231 184 001

78-79 3.0L 911SC

and, if different from 78-79

80 3.0L 911SC

My 74 Tech Spec book says the 74 911, 911S, and Carrera (US) are all the same. With the vac hose disconnected, you want 3.5°-6.5 at 1k, 4.5-14 at 1.5k, 16-24 at 2k, 24-31 at 4k, and 31-38 at 6k. So far as I know, there are no differences between the 74-77 motors which would call for different specs for the later years. The 2.7RS is of course a different story.
Search this site for more; there have been a lot of advance curves shown over the many months I've been here.

Paul:
I suggest you do it the other way round.

List details of your engine like size, fuel system carbs or CIS, compression ratio, octane used and see what the experts recommend re: curve.

According to Steve Weiner, cams make no difference for timing; CR, octane and air temps are critical factors.
The Bentley lists some numbers for stock SC's on page 280-2.
However, if any changes are made to OEM, other curves may be recommended depending on what mods were done.

So, what do you have?
Engine?
Distributor?

BTW: You can check the curve yourself by marking the pulley in increments and let someone rev it to specific RPM's while you see the marks with the Stroboscope light.
Do it once with vac connected and once with it disconnected.
It should show a nice, steady curve if the mech and vac advance are working correctly.

IMHO, max advance should not be before 3000 RPM, or even 4k.
