It won't run with this sensor disconnected. What do you mean their is no place for it?
From past experience with these type of swaps you have to remove the Japanese intake and swap before installing it. All changes need to be done with the engine out its much easier. If you purchased from a company like New York block ask them what needs to be swapped. Normally they will point this out to you. I assume you will also need to change the piece that holds the crank sensor but at this point you also need something on the crank. Look closely it may have been relocated.
Anyway companies who sell these should tell you exactly what to do.
