Blanking the Distributor on a standard 8V

[Telf 224 2 Cars]

As Im using a wasted spark coil for my project rather than a distributor im wondering what solutions might have been used to blank off the gap where the distributor was.

 

Is there are part that fits from a more modern engine?

I was thinking of dummy fitting the dizzy to keep it looking original or just ditching it completely. Id considered chopping the mounting face off the dizzy and fabricating a mounting point for the wasted coil pack but if there are any ready made solutions I'd be glad to hear them!

 

Thanks

The 2.0 8v wasted spark coil pack will bolt straight on, factory looking install.
