Where can we get the parts duplicated and made better by way of reverse engineering? What type of business would do this sort of work?

I am interested to know.

I would assume you would need to remove the kit and have the brackets mapped out by a cnc machinist so they can remake the brackets.

I have tried to find CNC Shops but they are not willing to take on the challenge of re-engineering.

Some CNC businesses have told me to seek an Auto customizing shop that involved with performance. That option is an dead end.

And suggestions would be appreciated and welcomed?

The piping is easy to do, the SC/pulley/belt is off the shelf from the research I am digging into with replacing mine. Even GTM just sourced theirs through another company not even directly from Rotrex.

The main items that would need to be designed are the SC bracket that holds the SC to our engine and how GTM routed the PS lines and anything custom on those lines.

Besides those 2 items above I do not see anything really 'custom' having been done that another shop could not replicate with some time or even improve upon by changing a few things for the better.

If there is ever another "properly sized" roots setup for this platform I'd be all.......
