Eds post above may be correct but looks monumentally complicated. I once was using a set of 7 speed brifters with an 8speed cassette and the performance was OK but not perfect. So I just bought a 7speed cassette and used a spacer on the freehub. The cassette cost me about a fiver or something (albeit trade price at the time) and I'd imagine you can still get them.
