TIMING questions

Is there anyway to bump the timing on an lt1? I have a bolt on 6spd camaro. I dont want to get the MSD optispark. I searched around a bit and didnt find to much useful info. I"m gonna be ordering a mail order tune soon also. Can they advance the timing through the ecu? Not looking for anything crazy just a few degrees for a few extra hp.

stats: 95 lt1 6 spd camaro
93 octane
1200 mile gm lt1 4 bolt main crate motor

How much timing would you suggest to add?

The stock timing curve is already pretty aggressive. I ADVISE AGAINST ADVANCE BEYOND THE STOCK CURVE.
