Multi contact electrical connector (2) comprises a housing (10) having cavities (16) extending therethrough and flat stamped contact terminals (18) in the cavities. Each terminal has an enlarged mounting portion (28). The mounting portion is supported in a rear portion (56) of the cavity between opposed cavity endwalls (62). The endwalls have V-notches (66) that receive the edges (34, 36) of the mounting portion (28). The contact arms (48) of the terminal are twisted relative to the mounting portion (28) and has a thickness which is substantially greater than the thickness of the mounting portion.
