Did you ever consider using an Accusump...to help maintain pressure in case it drops?
Timing is to high and could be knocking the bottom end out of it...detonation as Bill C. mentioned will kill any engine...
No reason to be that high...... a small cube engine with giant domes in small chambered heads in a heavy car might like 40-42 degrees but not for long if it detonates...
That engine sounds like an old school modified engine.....2-660 carbs....
8800 rpm is a lot......and hopefully has titanium valves and the best valve train pieces to be reliable....

I have a warning light if it drops below 20lbs.........C-12 and 14-1 and 39-40 degrees, I would think that's within some range of "acceptable limits"?
Steel valves here...............Comp 944 springs seem to get the job done.
Absolutely I've considered an Accusump......SS guys on this very forum suggest I don't need one
