Cosworth YB

I have a rebuilt naturally aspirated Cosworth YB. Does anyone have a good stating point for static ignition timing?

Cranking iginition timing will have to be less than 5 to 10 degrees btdc or it will try to run backwards against the starter.

This has to be the most exotic request on the forum so far.

Thanks for the help. I have tried 12 degrees but not with a lot of luck. I'll try 5 - 10.
