Maybe this guy can build a carbon fiber bell housings for
us.
I think I will send him email and ask.

Paul, I wanted to say that I have mentioned this
before. At that time we seemed to agree that the
hazards that would be caused be fire might not be
acceptable. Otherwise why not make the housing,
gearcase, and engine mount/schertz beam out of
carbon? I have had many e-mail communications
with David Algie. He is a very knowledgeable
fabricator. He works for Team Green IRL team as
their chief fabricator. I really like his aircraft,
but I think his design is a bit too "hot" for my
piloting skills level. His work is excellent.

The fire hazard is a very good point. If the gear box drops
of from a fire you are in even more danger of crashing right
now.
