read the service manual to see how much mechanical advance your distributor has, should be your timing at idle plus the mechanical advance, i think there is little vacuum at full throttle so vacuum advance should not contribute

to have to run at 20 on the timing cover surely indicates your cam or crank pulley or other part is installed incorrectly, that's assuming your motor is pretty much standard yes?

dunno how you have had this much patience with your car, do you drive it every day? mechanic would have found problem in no time and if you find a nice one they will teach you a few things at the same time
