what's best way to fix injector plug wires

Is there an easy fix for the wires where they attach to the plug which goes into the injectors on a DJet. Can the copper connectors be removed from the plastic plug and soldered/crimped? If not, is it possible to solder it in the plastic without melting it? I'm so close to making it purr I can taste it. I even went to get my spare wiring harnes to install it, but there was one wire broken loose on the other cylinder bank of that harness.

I'm in the final stages of minor reconstructive surgery on this car.

Installed front sway bar
relocated fuel pump to front
replaced plastic fuel lines
replaced floor pan under seats
reweld engine lid mounting hinge
installed adjustable MPS (this is a 1.7 with 93mm pistons and extractor exhaust, so it ran lean with no modifications. Years ago I tried 2.0 injectors, but it ran too rich then. I settled for the 1.7 injectors and a variable resistor/rheostat in line with the CHT. I put many miles on it, but I don't think it was mixture correct throughout the range. Now that Brad's page is here I'm going for another stab at it.
Replaced ECU with updated model with idle mixture adjustment.
New White paint with Blue stripe down the center.
New 8 spoke wheels with Michelins all around.

So I'm anxious to see what all the work has wrought. any help will be appreciated.

PD
