If you use the quickest curve like most of us do, then all of the timing is in by 2,000 rpm, genius.
First off d1ckhead, my quote above was from the article bingo2 posted. Second, that article was written by John Hinckley. Never heard of him? Do a search. He was plant manager for 20+ years at GM's Corvette division, plant manager at the Chrysler Viper plant, inducted into the Corvette Hall of Fame and has written many articles for auto restoration magazines. He's been responsible for building a thousand times more motors than the ones you listed ever dreamed of building.
Your attitude is typical of someone who just regurgitates what they've heard/read and has never had any hands on experience.
