A quote from the link below...
"what you're suggesting will do the opposite what you want. When you open the throttle manifold vacuum will drop off, decreasing advance.
The ported vacuum will increase as you open the throttle and continue to increase as the flow thru the carb increases. giving you full advance."

The (single chambered) vacuum advance canister on a distributor connects to a designated fitting on the carburetor.
An oem '56 dual canister distributor has two vacuum lines, one connects to the carb, the other to manifold vacuum. The only one I'm aware of that connects to the intake manifold.
