Default Distibutorless ignition?

Hey all. I am wanting to use Megajolt on my 302. This means i know longer need the distbutor. I was wanting to get rid of the dizzy (throw away) but the oil pump gets its drive from it. So any ideas as to how to remove the dizzy yet still keep the oil pump turning? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

apparently YOUR engine needs oil. My engine uses pixie dust , but that dizzy on the front looks untidy!

The oil pump on a ls2 runs off the crank shaft.

You would have to have a mechanical pump from an older style 302, but that would necessitate the block and timing cover, too....which is probably a little more than you bargained for
