The power connector is the same type as the SS1/1+/2.  If you don't have
a powersupply for one of them to hack the connector off of, Digi-Key has
the connectors for $0.84/ea in individual quantities.  It's the
"Mini-Fit, Jr. Series 12 pin Receptacle Housing".

Pinouts (these are the pinouts looking into the motherboard connector,
_not_ the powersupply connector!):

J1401:  Motherboard power connector.  Pin #1 is right next to the "J1401"
        silkscreening.  Note that this is the view of the connector on the
        motherboard from above.  Diagram:

Pins:
   1: +12 (yellow)
   2: NC
   3: -12 (white)
   4: GND (black)
   5: +5  (red)
   6: GND (black)
   7: +5  (red)
   8: GND (black)
   9: +5  (red)
  10: +5  (orange)
  11: NC
  12: +5  (blue)

One of either the orange or blue lines is "power OK".  If your powersupply
"clicks" on a split second after poweron, you shouldn't need to worry
about it.  IPC/IPX powersupplies do, SS1/1+/2 powersupplies don't, most PC
powersupplies do.

Hope this helps.
