You need to blank off the extra spigot on the advance/retard on a DJ dizzy.

Re: 2.1 distributor used with carb
because you don't have a plenum chamber giving the correct vacuum for the second vacuum attachment but the carb may give a different vacuum to the throttle body so using the DG disi would probably be preferable as it is matched to the carb
the vacuum from the plenum chamber is not the same as the one from the throttle body and varies differently as well
