GM has used soldered crimp connections for decades so yes soldering is ok to do.

Take a single strand of say, 10ga wire maybe 6" in length and wrap the bundle of wires together in opposite directions tightly. Then, solder the connection fully and slide a section of dual wall polyolephin tubing over it and slowly heat it until the sealant starts to creep out of each end-fully soldered AND sealed now!
