RE: Methanol base timing
I don't know how much you need to retard from stock. I don't even know stock boost, CR and timing. Also I don't know if you changed valve timing.
With all the unknowns, I can only guess you need to retard it a lot.

We run 10:1 and 40# boost, Roots blower, no intercooler 36 Deg SB Chev, but intake valve closes 75 deg ABDC. We win races with that. There is not much margin for error and an error is a hole in a piston.
