Boucher,
I would not lock out the timing on your HEI when you install it.
I doubt you will be able to run 30+ something degrees total while boosting.+ starting will be a pain.
If you mean lock it w/low timing say 20 degrees,then worse mileage,different ways to set-up your dizzy.
I would limit the total advance it can provide mechanically.
Run a bit more initial timeing,alloweable w/out detonation.

A lot of people do not recommend an intercooler @ low boost levels,I always recommend one.If you can install a product or item that can reduce intake temps,, do it, especially when forced induction is involved.
Low buget items I mostly look for low budget builds & the low priced intercoolers from ebay fit that bill,Example:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CXRacing-...sQ5fAccessories most are made in China,they seem to work fine & have an assortment of sizes.
Also, they sell universal intercooler plumbing kits for low$$,,,look for the thicker walled tubing,mandrel bends w/rolled beads already done. Example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CXRacing-...sQ5fAccessories
With most of these kits,the clamps & silcone hose are a bit cheap,but for low boost will work fine.
Methanaol injection I also recommend,especially when not running an intercooler,+ you will make more power,it will supper chill your intake temps.

top notch kits,others will work also.
Lowest priced I have seen: http://www.alcohol-injection.com/universal-stage-1-8.html
