I have my timing locked at 32 deg. That is correct, but only for the track. I have a switch to change ingnition systems to a computer that will advance the timing up a normal curve. I have another switch to retard total timing 3 degs. I was just trying to tune the race system. I will admit that I haven't tried running hard on the street timing system.

I did up my idle to 1000 rpms and I backed out my mixture screws to 7/8 out. The popping wasn't there. My engine will not idle as low as many due to the very light wieght rotating assembly. If the race idle is set at 1200 for the track, the idle falls below 900 when I flip the timing switch and go to the street system. I think that would be okay. I have ordered some 190 Air correctors and 180 mains just to see what happens. The popping has gotten a lot better, almost gone. I am still lean any time I am close to WOT.
