Clearly this would be an alternative to getting an original intake which I believe shall be very difficult, if not impossible.
I also know of a company that can scan the intake and deliver files.

Mondello's in TN could do the whole thing... prototype to scan to cnc... (billet aluminum or modern plastic)... also know who it could get it cast if someone is willing to invest... (high quality aluminum or modern plastics)... Making an intake that fits vs one that works with the combo its bolted to is no small feat.
IMO more cooperation, less competition between shops and suppliers we could get most anything done... lots of talent and resource out there.
ALSO takes customers willing to buy the first pieces vs waiting for someone else to "prove them worthy"... far too many among us only wanting to be "as good as" vs being "better than" or different from the rest of the crowd.
Good luck with this venture Don.
