  Five-cell elliptical 650 MHz β=0.9 cavities to accelerate 1 mA of average H beam current in the range 520-3000 MeV of the Project X Linac are currently planned. We will present the results of optimization of mechanical design of cavities with their Helium Vessel. We discuss the efforts to optimize the mechanical stability of the cavity versus the Helium bath pressure fluctuations, cavity tunability. We present also modal and thermal analysis; discuss tuner options and other issues.
