    yes – – – somewhere back on the engineer’s drawing board,
    someone thought those Big Twins would be taken on and off
    the boats frequently – – – subsequently, the quick disconnects.
    Now, if you do not plan on this event, it is prudent, but not period correct,
    to eliminate them…. I have seen 5 of the quick disconnects and have 3 sets in a box.
    all the wires and pins are toast. No way would I run 12v high amps through them.
    but – your motor – use your own best judgement on how to proceed.
    Just sharing some thoughts on the subject.
