Blower Rebuild

[Roy Napier]

Hi Folks,

I have a Godfrey cabin blower fitted on my vintage Riley race car. I guess its circa 1930's - 40's. The rotors are not in very good shape and I am wondering if anyone can help me find someone to repair/rebuild, perhaps even make new rotors, skim the casing etc.
I have tried in vane in the UK but the old fellas who used to do this type of work are long gone.
Any help you can give is much appreciated.

Need to contact machine shops.
New castings made.
Or have it 5-axis CNC Machined new Billet rotors.

have you considered swapping to a currently built roots style supercharger?
