EFI to Carburetor

I have an '85 F150 AOD 302 with what appears to be a later EFI 302 that has been converted to carburation in order to match the VIN. My question is this, can I use a DSII ignition system on this engine and not do any substantial damage to the emissions system?

Also, what items need vacuum other than the brake booster, EGR, distributor, Thermactic system?

Thanks.

Just pull out the EFI distributor and drop in a carb distributor with vacuum advance. It's as simple as that. I did the EFI-carb swap on an 88 351w and it runs very well.
