The real one in the pic and the design drawing in CAD are not the same. In the CAD design there is supposed to be one bolt head on each half of the clamp. In the produced version both bolt heads are on the same side of the clamp. Look closely. The bolt heads are supposed to be on opposite halves and on opposing sides like in the CAD drawing.

You could probably fit a pancake motor/generator in there. Trouble is, the torque converter would soak up most of the deceleration...
A VW doghouse fan just fits in there (AMHIK
)...with a little ducting, it could be the poor mans supercharger...

To save people having to go back and re read the thread. The clamp will be balanced in that both sides are equal and a bolt will be fitted to each clamp half.
The original pictures are of prototypes - this means pre production samples for proof of concept.
The production clamp will be exactly the same as Ken's drawing.
Material is being cut today on the first batch.

With the new clamp balanced do we now need to do likewise to the OEM with only one bolt?

The stock clamp and flexplate are balanced as a unit. Note the scallops cut into 1 or 2 arms of the flexplate. The clamp and flexplate are sold as a unit. If you unfasten the flexplate from the clamp, it should be marked for orientation so you put it back together the same way.

Now if you could fab up some sort of a transmission and spin a small, cast impeller, might have something.

If I understand your question correctly (Canadian is not my first language 
):
The PKlamp fits over the larger OD section, behind the original clamp.
