I have junction strips like the one you are using on your motor plate in my Mustang, but they are in the cockpit. Each one of those connections represents an exposed hot wire in an area that could get splattered with liquid like water or....gasoline! Having toasted all my wiring in an engine fire, I would recommend fabricating a cover of some sort for that.

Are those circuits fused? If not, perhaps fabricate an insulated strip with a string of Bussman circuit breakers on it to replace the connection strip. That would protect your equipment and help prevent a short while still providing the convenience of being able to disconnect something at the turn of a nut.
