You forget about the bolting attachment of the Ford drum plate to to your design which is additional weight , to compare with my design is close to your design weight.

I will send you the design later.

I don't use that Ford part. I fasten the sun gear to the hollow  1.5 inch input
shaft with extended point set screws. They work like splines but
are much lower cost.  Tracy used a pin to fasten the sun gear to a one
inch shaft. That failed on Dave Leonard's turbo. It was also welded.

I think you where on the News Letter when that happened.

This is much stronger.


Here it is complete with sun gear.
