I have never seen a distributor that had vacuum advance, and did not also have mechanical advance. If you are asking if you should just use mechanical advance as opposed to using both, it depends on what you want to use the engine for. If you are building an everyday driver, I would recommend using both. If you are building a weekend only racer, i'd just use mechanical.

Take care,
