.35 sounds pretty good. Going down to 30 seems pretty low, I dont know if you can monitor knock but if you can I would try to keep as large of a gap as possible without detonation.

Rule of thumb where spark plugs and higher than normal cylinder pressure is concerned. Gap them tighter. I would go for mid 20's, they are going to burn bigger anyways. It makes it much easier for the plug to do its job when the gap is smaller. If someone tells you otheriwse, run away.
