This is indeed true, and can cause problems with
ping/detonation.
However, these distributors come with an *adjustable*
vacuum advance -- so an afternoon's worth of driving
and tweaking with an allen wrench will let you set it
just right. You'll have a little more zip when you
need it, but no ping. :o)
I've been driving my '71 Imperial with one of these
systems for six years now -- no problems whatsoever
and great throttle response (I'd also say better cold
starts and improved fuel economy too).
