Largest diameter is about 15 inches for the bolt flange.

Here is what I have come up with so far. The flat lower sides
can be used to bolt on your fabricated rubber bushing brackets
of choice. This give a maximum amount of flexibility as it
seems nobody can agree on just how wide they want their rubber
bushings to be. It is rather more complicate inside as various
and assorted ribs are required to provide support for Tracy's
PSRU.

What does everybody think?

I don't know what everybody else thinks, but I know I can turn up to 15" on
my lathe.  Looks like the cylinder & ribbed "protrusion" on it are Tracy's
PSRU.  Also looks like the bell housing itself, mounting flange, ribs,
stiffeners, etc. could all be made into a single pattern with no cores.
Quite simple compared with those manifolds we've been playing with.  When
you get a dimensioned drawing, sent it and I'll see what it would take to
make you a wood pattern.

Actually Tom I was hoping you would take over the project.
I can do the pattern for you :)

BTW could you convert that nucleate boiling chart to HP
or BTU's for me?
