It'll be interesting to see how the surface mount switch survives vibration fixed to the engine - not that there is much, it runs pretty smoothly. Dead easy to change though now, just two M3 screws and no need to drain down :thumbup:
We had almost the exact same devices bolted to the side of the combustion chambers for the gas tumble driers in my launderettes and had remarkably little trouble with them

looks like the same unit as bolted to the back of the oven in our 'Stoves' induction range cooker .. controls over heat for the over head grill element .. and IIRC is open circuit at overheat

a bit 'heath' .... but how about individual, suitably colour coded, 250A welding leads with dinse plugs/sockets ... they'd handle the current, be very flexible .... and as it's only you using it ... on your head be it, getting the connections wrong .. as long as you're not colour blind :) :)
