Default Help from crossfire to carb guys

When I try to use a dizzy with vacuum I get no spark but when I put the stock dizzy in I get spark. If I am running a carb will the computer be alright to run timing or do I need the vacuum dizzy to control it? 84 vette
thanks

the old distributor on the 84 should be an HEI.

If you have all the sensors in play, the computer should control the distributor. That also means making sense out of the TPS and IAC...
