I should be able to isolate everything at the fuse panels, using some male and female connectors. I believe I only need to do this to 5 fuses. Shouldn't take more than an hour.

You are correct, these
should be fine. The speed of everything in the computer is driven by the voltage that serves it, though, and since I've seen sensors, etc. get thrown off by voltage problems before, I don't want to mess with it if I can avoid it easily.
PLUS I need the car for occasional trips to see my family in Kansas City, which is some 250 miles each way. This way, I don't have to worry about stopping to charge up or put the belt on, etc. with the wife and baby in the car. I already commend my wife for riding around with me in the car.
