I have a bucket of those connectors but never used them for a harness kit since they are not OEM. I havent seen people have much luck with the replica connectors like these. The OEM actually never made that connector before, they have the side that plugs into the stock top hat, but they never manufactured the other end, it was always molded into the top hat. If you want to do a re-wire using OEM quality connectors and not have to modify your stock wiring at all, the end all method would be to use a 2-way and 3-way in the same series as the OEM. Then you can just de-pin and re-pin into the new OEM housings which they do make matching pairs of. Every connector in the series other than the 5-way, they made both ends.
With the particular install in the first post, that will work to a point, but from what I have seen, its the connector molded into the top hat that melts first. I would just add a couple pass through studs in the plastic hat since its naturally insulated, then you dont have to bottleneck down through that OEM connector on the plastic hat.

Just getting back to some old posts. Yeah, I ended up buying a bunch of these. It is true that they did not make an OEM hat side. I had to search high and low to get those.
I ran with it all last season with a 340 pump on a deatshwerks rewire and a CJM fuel return kit. No issues at all. I added a velocity stack filter to my TG S.C. set up and the standard Walbro was not cutting it anymore. To be honest, I probably could have gotten away with the Walbro 255 on the DW rewire kit. It just was time to replace the pump out of maintenance. They are all roughly the same price. Quote:
