Your timing looks pretty good to me.

You won't be able to run quite as much timing as they were in that article, because you have 10.5:1 compression.

I'd just keep advanceing your timing till it starts to ping (usually will first start pinging when engine is at full throttle, low RPM, and hot) then back it off a little.

I'm running about 14* initial and 36* total. From what I've heard, this is pretty much normal for small block fords.
