never been an issue for any of the xflows,pintos, lotus twincam and one vauxhal 8v i have worked on with conventional dizzys and webber 40's or alike with vac advance.
the lotus engine was setup like it as a production car and i think thay knew what thay where doing.
only things that dont like seeing a single cyl vac is map sensors as far as i know
i dont expect a dizzy vac diaphram will react that quick
