I don't remember what I ended up setting it on but I think it was advanced.
I also had to use a shorter timing chain due to excess slack from having the block bored/honed. I doubt a shorter timing chain would affect the cam to crank position enough to cause problems.

Sounds like you have a chain set for main saddle line bored block.
The sets I have used for this have slightly larger gears, same chain.
Your misfire is ignition or engine related (valvespring etc), single 4 barrels don't cause misfiring, they can cause surging or low power, flat spot etc.
Misfiring is a dead cut on one or more cylinders.
