Looking for a distributor for a 1919 Peerless V8, Model 56, Series 5, plus an extra set of points. Will settle for a distributor cap plus an extra set of points. Can anyone tell me if more modern distributors, distributor caps or points can be substituted for the one we have installed in the Peerless? We inherited the Peerless from my Dad, so don't have the expertise to know what make or model of distributor is installed on the Peerless. If we could at least identify what the choices are for that year, it would be helpful to us. Our mechanic is suggesting replacing the entire distributor "with good shaft bushing". Thanks for whatever help you can provide. /Don
