Saschse ignition curve setting

Ok so 350/500 max advance is 30/34degrees I believe. For my 478 I am trying to determine which setting to use from my new Saschse ignition, none of which gives 30 degrees max.
apparently 350 best curve ie # 5 gives 34 degrees max advance. No surprise there.
Adjusting for 500 curve # 3 has been recomended by Sasche but has max advance of 32 degrees. Is 2 degrees advance beyond recommended going to do any damage?
Tried using curve 1, much softer, way too retarded and engine overheated massively.
Any 500 owners out there with the Saschse ignition please advise me as to which gives best results for them? ( on standard static timing )
