Default 2.3 Distributor Question, 1989 Mustang

Hey guys, first time poster so go easy on me. I bought a 2.3 motor from a 1989 Mustang, I got everything with the motor but the module that goes in the distributor. I'm planning to put the 2.3 motor in a 1931 Model A Ford coupe. I have taken all of the efi and everything else electronic off the motor. I'm going to build a custom down draft intake for two 2 barrels, the old Holley 94's if anyone knows what I'm talking about and run headers. I'm building this motor to be reliable and simple but still look old for my 31 coupe.

Now this leads me to my question on the distributor. I would like to run a points based distributor that has mechanical advance and I really don't want to buy a new Mallory dual point distributor because I would have more in the new distributor then I would have in the whole motor. So my question is what other distributor can I get used that would be points based with a mechanical advance that would work in the 2.3 motor? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
