The 71 may or may not have been equipped with a vacuum advance and if it 
was it would not have been connected.  But the 70 TR6 was equipped with both.  
At least that is my recollection.  So there may be some residual fittings 
that were not used but would make retrofitting easier.  My 71 model had both 
advance and retard modules but no port for the advance.  Retrofitting later 
model carbs fixed that problem.

In 1974 the engine was fitted with an EGR valve and that port could be used 
for the vacuum advance (if your distributor was so equipped).
