what heads?

175 generally speaking is two ranges colder, so say instead of autolite 25's, run 23's, and pull about 2 degrees per 50 HP, so say instead of 14 BTDC, run about 7.

*waits for the chevy guy to talk about irrelevant knock sensor tech*

that about sums it up.. but make sure you use COPPER plugs if your not already.. nitrous does not like platinum.
