Best? Mallory Unilite (vacuum model), with or without a CDI box.  It does fit, just barely, under the decklid if you're using Aurora squareback-style plug wires.  You'll probably need to reposition the distributor drive pinion to accomodate the vacuum can.

Most realistic?  Bosch 034 SVDA.  No special caveats required, but the Mexico-made units aren't anywhere near as nice as the Mallory.

The vacuum advance on either distributor works very nicely with ICTs.
