Paul,
This is the pattern (in development stage) of the bellhousing - the piece
that has depth (front piece) is the part which houses the damper/flywheel
and the faceplate which the PSRU bolts on to, the square sides and bottom
are to accommodate a starter motor at different positions.  The backplate is
the piece that bolts to the motor and has an integral strengthening beam at
the bottom. The sides of the backplate are shaped similar to the flat
mounting plate now available.
The rear fibreglass piece in the background (top of one photo) is my mould
for the damper/flywheel section

The two pieces are now one piece (glued together) and are in the stage of
filling and fairing joins.
The next stage is to put on some stiffeners - paint it and then it goes to
the foundry.

George make sure it is 3.58  inches (90.9 MM) from the 13B end housing mounting surface
to the PSRU 13 MM thick mounting surface so Tracy's input shaft will work.
