That is the factory ignition timing. Your best bet would be to just trial and error it. move the distributor a little each way. I've heard that advancing it a little provides some gain.

Timing light only tells you what timing is. supposedly advancing past 2-3 degrees is detrimental to engine performance.

Go to timing change. If you want to tell them they're wrong, go for it, but they seem like they know their stuff.
