Default Megasquirt Tuning?

I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I figured it would be best in here.
I have a 2004 5.3 with LS1 Accessories. I'm running the motor with a Megasquirt MS3X system running sequential injection and spark.
Does anyone have a Ignition timing table either for a 5.3 or a LS1 for me to check my table with?
Specifically with kPa and not with g/cyl.
Thanks for any and all help!

Why not start with a stockish timing map and work your way up from there?

That's essentially what I'm asking for. Just a stock map to cross check all of my settings.

The big thing to get them to idle is the correct idle air settings, and to have ignition timing correction for target idle rpm.
Thank you sir! I have an email sent your way. Coming from sketch3456@gmail.com(Vedem Racing).

Now for the idle. I am also not running a IACV. Is it still possible to make the engine idle decently?
