Advancing my cam 2, 3 or 4 degrees?

[BOOT]

Picked up a dirt cheap Elgin E-1135-P cam for a budget crappy SBC engine refresh/mod/build(it's a POS engine and I have better but..). Thinking I might as well advance it some to be safe, not gonna rpm push it normally as much prob cause the engine is ??? miles. I kinda want more mid range out of this for the car, it'll have a 3000 stall, vortec heads(mild port), dual plane, mid length headers, 9ish comp and it's stripped down. Comp and all the other junk is pretty much set using what I got for this project. Anyways no cam expert but got a sim cam in another car with worse combo that I make work.

Here is a vid of that cam and another very sim cam I got, well The Howards is basically 2 deg advanced version.

Elgin cat says 10.5:1 - 11:1 comp. 90* overlap
