Not that I am aware of. Most distributors since the 50s and probably before have a gear on the bottom end of the shaft in the place a shaft retainer would be on the Model A. Also a lot of these distributors are longer than the Model A too - they have the length of both shafts built into the housing.

If you want centrifugal advance, go find a Mallory or B distributor.
