I might have a good DigiKey cart to build one Marty Goodman cable now. I just ordered one, so I'll know if this is actually a good kit when I get it. IE, do the pins actually work in the 8-pin housing, is the polarity bump on the 8-pin housing big enough or small enough, is that 6mm id insulation tubing big enough to cover the diode & resistor next to one of those wires , etc. Until then, this is just proposed. For starters, I figured it's best to just follow Marty's specs excatly and only deviate from there after testing, by which I mean measuring not just using.
