No. Setting your initial timing at 10 degrees ATDC or 30 degrees BTDC is not going to change the electrical load on the battery, or the coil, or the MSD unit or the tail lights.... It will do other things, but not change the electrical load.

If you reclocked your distributor, are you absolutely positive you got your plug wires over in the correct order (and didn't move them in the wrong direction) and that you're not 180 degrees out? But even if you put the distributor 180 degrees out and mess up the plug wires big time you're still not going to change the load on the electrical system.
