Thank you for that comment.  I was actually going to ask for some advice on 
the wire as there is a lot of current going through there I assume.  I am 
not sure however if I will cut it and splice new part into it.  I would 
rather try to make a plug & receptacle that goes between the power unit and 
the flash head plug.  But before I try any of that I am going to see if 
moving the power unit to the front of the lens is enough for my needs (the 
idea is to put the flash heads on goosenecks so they can be moved freely 
around in all directions).
