Thought I would pass on an update, I know that I always like to hear how a problem was researched or solved. Mine is not solved just yet, I have more info but it seems that the terminals are no longer a common item.
This website has the exact components that made up the relay blocks I have, the PDF in the lower left shows the individual parts:

http://www.pkcgroup.com/wiring-systems/components/power-distribution-centres.html

By using the engineering drawings I was able to find part numbers for the  terminals used.
The terminals are/were made by "Lear" and these are the p/n I would like to find:
Lear #361030-YF200     10-12 ga term for the Bosch relay
Lear #361430-YF200     14-16 ga term for the Bosch relay
Lear #771016-FK200     10-12 ga minifuse terminal
Lear #771416-FK200     14-16 ga minifuse terminal

It appears to me as if the only source for these are "Request for Bid" sites that have inventory of misc discontinued parts.
Anyone with a purchasing background that can offer insight to these sorts of sources?? I'm thinking that they are sort of like Greene Ford with the obsolete parts, but I don't know if they will sell small quantities to an end user and not a distributor or business.
(The relay blocks and terminals were also used on Buell cycles at one point.)
I also found a PDF catalog for Motorcraft connectors and stuff if anyone has an interest, I'm just passing it on in case someone is upgrading electrical and might find it interesting:

So I'm still working out how to cut and splice what I have, just adding this as an update.
