Default 1/4-32 spark plug connector to Rc Excel Electronic ignition.

I have an urge to try a glow engine on spark ignition using E85 fuel. I was reading up on another thread that it works reasonably well even with a methanol carburetor (so I don't need to use a walbro carb) but I'd need to use a spark plug for ignition. I have an old Rc Excel ignition unit that I can use for the experiment but it connects to a larger spark plug. What would it take to convert it to use the smaller kind?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Also, you'll find what you need here. The 120 degree one works perfectly on engines where the plugs are down between tall cooling fins, like on a Saito 1.50 for example.
