Some round cables for wide SCSI would get you 68 wires already bundled up in a 
compact package.

What Jeff said also reminded me of when I made a cable harnesses and used 20AWG 
instead of 22AWG.  It makes a big difference when you have a bunch of wires 
together.  Having 100+ would be a pain to route through the chassis.  Maybe a 
flexible circuit or ribbon cables to connect from the socketed adapter to the 
DayStar accelerator would be easier to manage.
