Default big fuel Pump relay? or something else to use.

Ive been running my a1000 through a simple relay for a while now connecting it with 8 gauge wire on either side and it hasnt really sat with me well. Is there a relay that is made to carry large amounts of power out there? I want to run my 8 gauge wire in and out of it and use the factory fuel pump wires like i have been to trip the relay when i turn the key. My only other option is something like a t1 master cut off switch and that seems a bit overkill since i already use that for my master cut off. I dont want to wire the pump to it but i will if i have to to do away with the little relay ive been using.

thats cool, similar to the T1 relay but a lot less power handling which would be fine for a pump.

Anyone else have any items that come to mind?
