Rather than retarding the engine's initial timing you may consider slightly increasing the strength of the mechanical advance springs.  This should raise the RPM the advance begins at but still keep that off the throttle snap.

Dear Tom,  John, Lindsey, Charles, Russ, and Tony,
I want you each to know how much I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my post about ideas to improve my poorly running 300H.
It is obvious all the ideas represented thought, and will  result in varying degrees of trauma to both the engine and my wallet!
I have read and thought a lot about all the ideas,  and I think what I will do initially is to get it back to a known stock condition with the original 300H camshaft I bought from Fern. The carbs are as new, the dissy is as new, the damper is new, compression is good, valves are set correctly .
Pinging is an issue with me as Iive on the top of a 1000 foot hill, so when it gets hot up here it is an issues coming up the hill. My first step then will be the camshaft, if that doesn't make a big improvement, the next step  will be to get  a thicker head gasket, which I guess I can have made by Cometic (they made one for my 63 Jaguar) .
Thanks again for all the help! This is a terrific resource!
