Thanks

Assuming all 3 power supplies are contributing (All the rails are joined), each one:

3.3v + 5v = 150w
12v = 300w
total = 450w

So combined, it becomes 1350W total (3.3v + 5v = 450w, 12v = 900w)
These values are maximum values, but still pretty good

Last progress shot for the night:

All cables are ready, only thing left is to make the breakout box

1x 24 pin
1x 4 pin
1x 8 pin EPS
2x 6 pin PCI-E
5x molex
1x fdd

Done some quick load testing, man this thing is LOUD!!! Luckily its only a benching PSU but still

Specs:
e6600 @ 3.2 ghz, 1.5v
p5k vanilla
2x 2g kingston (D9FTB chips)
2900xt (stock)

Idle voltage: 12.47v
Load (prime95 + atitool cube): 12.43v

Really awesome results! I will be using this PSU as my high power bench PSU from now on
