I have questions about the installation of the seal blocks. Am I correct
in the impression that the holes for the screws should not completely
penetrate the outer housing wall?
Is there a measurement of where to start the cut away for the blocks?
thanks

It is impractical for them to NOT penetrate.
Be careful when torquing  them down as you could strip the threads.
Then you would have to install a heli coil.
Also if you pot the cavity with Devcon liquid aluminum or JB Weld  first
the blocks would be more secure. It is easy to bore through the Devcon.

True, you bore through the OUTER portion of the housing wall so that there
is a "well" to cut threads into, but I think C.Smith's concern may have been
over how DEEPLY does one cut THROUGH the thickness of the sidewall WITHOUT
drilling INTO the rotor chamber.

Not exactly. Here is the situation.
