Thanks guys, It's really on a new level. There were a few things where it was midnight and I said that's good enough before just to get it on the road. As far as the connectors go, time will tell. The terminals are different for the 12-14 gauge wire than they are for 14-18. They are dual 12" spals and pull under 20 amps a piece.
http://www.spalusa.com/pdf/30102029_SPEC.PDF#view=FitH I've wired my ignition box with them as well. I can see where the water tight seal could cause an issue with overheating. None of the circuits are over 20 amps however. Like I plan to drive in the rain. I just like the cleanliness of the connectors and ease of disconnecting. I hate the connectors that come in the autowire kit. Sure you can fill them full of dielectric grease but they still suck. Removing the seals between the female and male connection would fix the deal in most scenarios I'd bet. I'll run them this way and keep an eye on it. That's about as much work as putting on my shoes at this point.

Very soon, I'm just waiting on parts. My checlist is getting pretty short. It's looking so good. I can't believe the car has been down for almost 4 months. I can't wait to drive it!!!!!!!

Todd, your car is looking awesome. I went back last night and went through this entire thread from the start. I can't believe how much this build reminds me of our build on paul's chevy II. This car just get's better with every new change and improvement and the fact it's has so much owner feedback on those minor tweaks and engineering parts that don't work is great for all who visit this website.. It's great to see the other people on this board interact during this build and the helpful info we can share with each other.Keep up the great work . Any chance you might be coming to gingerman? Would love to see it . take care Joe.
