Default Big shot on a Carb LS1, Timing issue?

i have a 383 ls1 im doing a carb swap on e85. Going to run a fogger and a plate. my plan is to spray a 200 on the fogger and a 100-150 on a plate.

my question is, what have you guys done, (or suggest) about pulling timing on a big shot? the msd 6010 can only pull 15* of timing.

i asked a buddy of mine if he ran into issues with this. His responce, "I did run into problems not being able to pull enough timing so I had to back down my motor timing to 23* so I could run 8* total while spraying".

I am going to run 2 tunes, one using a map sensor for N/A use, and tune out the map and drop timing for the Nitrous tune. Does anyone have any other suggestions on any other way around dropping soo much base timing? or a way to pull more than 15* of timing?

We ran up to 400*, and just adjusted base timing to accommodate.. As long as the thing can still do a burnout and stage clean it's no big deal.
