Default Stock 2000 LS1 timing

I was just wondering if anybody off the top remembers what their respective timing values were for their stock LS1's? I noticed the Lo Octane map on my '00 WS6 runs about 19* up top, while the Hi Octane map will run 28*, but I see alot of people talking about how they usually 'max' out timing at 28* on their cars which leads me to wonder if my PCM maps have been altered before I owned the car.

So anybody know the stock upper end timing for these motors?

Also remember with timing, there are several other factors that can affect it... There's a Spark Learn factor that the PCM is constantly changing , it'll keep going closer and closer to the high octane tables if there's no knock

There's also modifiers that add/remove timing based on engine coolant temp, IAT, EGR

Hrmm.. looks like my maps, guess I shouldn't be overly concerned then, it's just that I see so many people talking about how they play around with lead the timing up to around 28* and find it to be best, then I see that my timing is already at 28* up top.. kinda worried me that I was already running around on a modified map!

each car will decide what amount of advance it likes, i run 30-31 personally, others do 25. No rule of thumb here, get on a dyno, give it what it wants.
