Usually the "delta symbol" _is_ the symbol for major seven.
Admittedly, I know other notations as well. Though, I've never seen a
"delta symbol" _and_ "7".

Anyway, the context-property `majorSevenSymbol` could be adjusted to
retrun as you wish.

\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    %% whiteTriangleMarkup is the default, see engraver-init.ly
    majorSevenSymbol = \markup { #whiteTriangleMarkup 7 }
  }
}

\chords {
  c1:7+
}

HTH,
  Harm
