Also I am now accepting all advice on wiring harnesses from painless to EZ wire and anything else out there let me know please and thanks  |

My advice would be to get some sheet of the same thickness and mock up a bunch of butt gaps. Then figure out your settings for each gap since your fit up will never be perfect.
You can also using a piece of aluminum or copper as a backing which would allow more heat without blowing through.
Dont use a flap wheel. I prefer a die grinder with 40-80 grit disc. If I really need to take something down I will use a cut off wheel and slowly nip away at it.
