Default Distributor setups for L78 or L72 engines?

Just wondering what kind of distributor setup you guys are running on L78 or L72 engines. My 70 L78 has an HEI and I found out that it appears to be quite old with some rusty internals. I like the HEI and plan to keep it but I was wondering what kind of advance to run(springs and weights). I'm guessing it should be around 36-38 degrees total advance but what to do about the curve? I need to rebuild the stock carb first before I can do any real tuning but it never hurts to ask.
