Deutsch Connectors
A while back we were talking about the wiring when installing a set of Autometer gauges. I used a Painless Performance universal gauge harness to simplify things. I looked everywhere I could think of for some multiple pin connectors, to no aval.
Well, just messing around tonight and look what I found. http://www.msdignition.com/1protool.htm Scroll to the bottom of the page. I guess I was just looking too hard and never thought about MSD. BTW, Summit sells them.

Catapillar uses them on all there engines....however the crimper to crimp the barrel terminals correctly runs over a hundred bones.
Sooo.....you can spend around $35 from mac tools for a pair of crimpers that will handle standard weather pac....metri pac....micro pac and all those wonderful connectors that gm uses....but where to get the raw materials without buying premade pigtails from uncle gm??? www.delphiauto.com....check out the connectors catalog and dream away of the possabilities that exist....
