Check out the dimesional drawings.  Is that big round disk on the output
shaft a blower?  I'd hate to think that he might have somehow procured a
patent on that particular idea.

 
Looks like an enclosure for a flywheel.  Note the starter poking into it from the engine side. 
 
Just can't wait for that flying car to get finished.  I imagine they're still trying to get the MTBF (Mean Time Between FATALITY) up to double digit minutes  :-)
 
Cheers,
Rusty
