With 34 total timing there’s a chance you only have 8 initial.
More initial will help it run cooler.
You could try plugging your vac advance back up to a manifold vac source.
I should have listed the initial timing as well. I have it set at 12 or 14 degrees I believe.

I was running the vacuum advance and it didn't change anything.
