The mk wires will be attached to the end of the outlet side of the subcon connector and threaded thru a blueglobe seal. creating a pig tail assembly. I am not using the Mk shaft as the attachment point for the thrusters as I have a kort nozzle assembly for attachment to the sub body.

How will the penetrator connect to the MK housing? Do you mean
having subconn manufacture that end of the cable with threads to
match the MK stub?<div class="yiv6215111868"><br clear="none">
