I am looking to replace the spade terminals that go into the main fuse block under the hood. I have run all new wiring but cant find these connectors anywhere?

Why do you want to put spade terminals into the fuse box? If you are looking for power, get it another way.
But you can get large spade terminals at most electronics stores and better stock automotive stores.

I have no interest in hacking my main power in I have run new wires and need new terminations for them. Have you ever tried to pry apart a connector and reuse it? does not work well.

I have been looking for the same connector. I would make it super easy to add a circut under the hood. I have checked all the local shops and the big one is too big, its really loose. The smaller ones of course dont fit at all. One of these days I'm going to take it to Radar Elect. (if they still have a retail store) and see if they can find me one.
I agree with Karack that cut and reusing an old connector will work but damnit a new one is just so much more convenient. I really dont know why it is so damn hard to find one!

So you are trying to replace the terminals? If you were at an electronics store and they did not stock or could not order them, then it was not an electronics store. 
Don't walk in there and say " I need parts for my RX-7". Walk in there with an older terminal and say "I need more of these.". Radio Shack is NOT an electronics store. If you can't find a local source, check out WayTek Wire ( http://www.waytekwire.com ).

Aaron, on that site they are listed as "push on" and they have only "normal" size
Karack, If you have seen the pics of my engine bay and understand that I am running the wires through the body so that there are no bulky harnesses running in the engine bay, it would look like *** having soldered on, mismatched wires sticking out of the main power block.
