 Remember these are not final. You will have to do further work on
 them. Also double check all dimensions.

 Once unzipped they should import into Solid Works.

 Thanks, Paul.  What shall I tell him for material?

 6061 T6 is fine.

 Hi Paul.  My friend called me yesterday to talk about the end
 housing.  He proposed that maybe the easiest way for him to price the
 end housing was to just make one.  I told him to hold off, given that
 it wasn’t a finished part, but looking at it, I don’t know what I
 need to do to finish it.  I looked for dimensions to check, but not
 knowing what they should be, I can’t really be of any help there
 either.

 Have you gotten yours any further?  I don’t mind working on it, but
 I’m feeling a bit useless in that department since you don’t want the
 guy with zero experience designing the parts.  I think I’m more
 useful if I spend my time pricing materials and doing groundwork.
 Any chance you might be able to come up with a finished design that
 he can just go ahead and make?

 I realize that all of this stuff distracts you from getting your
 turbo compound running.  :)

I am over loaded right at the moment.
The best thing to do is get your self a junk front end housing.
 You will then see what needs to be done.

Here is one on ebay for $34. Take it to a machine shop and slice it down
the vertical centre  with a big band saw.
After you examine you will have some questions. Don't hesitate
to ask and I will make some suggestions.
