    Intake trumpets for the runners? Didn't think of that; not like you could find oblong horns premade like you could for round runners.

    Very nice work. You are a very creative person. The way people like you think is not very easy to come across.

    Got some tube to use for the intake.

    How it comes round:


    After flattening:




    Almost perfect fit. Only 1/32" or less off in a few spots. All of this can be ground smooth after welding.


    Just enough room to weld all the way around.


    My mandrel I made for final shaping.

    That was my first thought too ('clearance' the housing)

    (plus it will reduce weight) (lol)

    +1 The bell housing is doing nothing right there and the drain plug is located well in the pan. All it needs is a little pocket trimmed out to clear a socket.

    Oh, man! That stinks! Seems like I'm always making mistakes like that, but on a much smaller scale. I'd be ripshit, but it looks like you've got it handled. :)
