i'm planning to do this eventually, a will make them by metal spinning, which is the easiest and cheapest way to make such items.

some info on metal spinning

http://aardvark.co.nz/pjet/spinning1.shtml

as for the design, i was going to turn the mandrel in a wood lathe, the ones where you can follow a pattern onto whatever you are turning, the pattern would be a parabola made in matlab or some mathematics program (or from a french curve or something) just made by eye to fit into the plenum i make basically. this would go from "flat" at the opening to "cylindrical" near the port inlet.

good luck with it
