Distributor. Buy a new MSD and be done with it.
Smog lines. Just get headers. You want them anyway. Take off the smog pump and toss it. Reroute your belts.
Intake. Yay. You got a cast iron intake. Sell it and get an Edelbrock Air gap manifold.
Vacuum lines. Plug off the ones you dont need. Route the others to manifold vacuum.
Get an Edelbrock carb while your at it. Install it. Electric choke. Be done with it.

i think the 2 coil dist is for retarding or advancing timing for starting. here is a hint. to check the dist coils. get an analog volt meter. set it on the lowest AC volt. put the meter probes into the coil wires. then spin the dist. the meter will move a little, if the coil is good. i have only spun the dist by hand, and reading was small. at higher spin speed it might read higher. you can all so check the coil OHMs. but i forget the numbers.
