Sending a photo with the strip installed. I used #6 spade terminals and they are narrow enough to keep from shorting. 
The transformerectomy and subsequent installation wasn’t bad.The most delicate part was getting the cloth insulation off the transformer leads. I ended up touching the wire with the soldering iron and then carefully cleaning the bare wire. If the bolts attaching the transformers to the frame are stuck just touch them with a soldering iron for a few seconds. 
Your idea for a PC is a good one. That would be a nice time saver.
