Newton,
You could just connect a 1/8" tube to the intake with a soldered shut brass fitting adapter thru which you then drill a .040 hole and connect to one side of the distributor then connect an unobstructed 1/8" tube to the air intake at the crossover or the air filter. You really should maintain a vented distributor.
