Good luck. No promises, but since you have vacuum advance there's a good chance changing it over to manifold vacuum could make a noticeable difference in engine temps in traffic, at idle and slow to moderate speeds. It's an easy to do change also. If your engine is a bit weak and lumpy at idle, as Cycleguy55 mentioned it will also smooth that out a little due to the greater timing advance and make normal starts from a stop a bit easier.
