Opinions on my spark plugs?
Just looking for some opinions on how my plugs look. They all look like this. My opinion is motor is lean, little to much timing(initial and total), but heat range ok. Opinions please. This is just 1 mile at 40 mph.

Hope that pic helps. They haven't been in there more then 10 miles. I had some fuel supply issues , long story short I could not get rid of lean condition so I pulled my elect. Fuel pump to replace and noticed very small fitting diameters on inlet and outlet so I'm back to square one with new pump and regulator. Can't send more than 1 image per reply but will show before and after of fuel fittings.

Currently I'm running on 4781 Holley 80f/86r with 6.5 pv front only. 20 initial/38 total timing. Runs good but to you guys do my timing marks look to low on the ground strap or not(240 dur. Cam)? Also for cutlassefi if I made a change to a colder plug and only that will I see more color on the porcelain?

Yes one step colder. Color change on ground strap goes a little further than I'd like to see. You asked, I gave you my opinion. Others seem to disagree so go with their recommendation if you like.

Ok, this is one heat range colder and up 4 jets front and back to 84 primary/90 secondary on Holley 4781.30 miles with full throttle pull through top gear up to 5000rpm. Looks lean to me plus hard to see heat range. What do you guys think?

The above pic states brown or grey on the ring at the base of the threads. Based on that info jetting looks good(yours is browner your first pic looked greyer). Can't tell the heat range from the pic.
Disclaimer I'm trying to learn to read my plugs, and have bumped my primary jetting up on the qjet.
I have the ac 43s in mine and it doesn't appear to be a colder plug like an ac 42? Your xr5s cross reference to the ac 43-44. There doesn't appear to be an xr6 either.
