I just got a Mallory dual point (2332001) with a Mallory Promaster coil with
ballast for my rebuilt (Mini Mania) 1275 in my Bugeye.

Got them from Samual at Century Performance on the web
(www.centuryperformance.com). The distributor was $157 and the coil was $69.
Good service both via email and phone, and got the parts in less than a week.

An electronic version is available, but is quite a bit more $$$.

Usual disclaimers...just a happy customer.
