Default Supercharger question

Hi Guys,
Last fall I had my Merc/Weiand256 rebuilt by the Blower Shop.
After approximately 30 hours of use, it now has a leaking front seal that I need fixed ASAP.
I haven't talked with TBS yet, but will tomorrow AM. I hear they're covered up for weeks. Do you guys know anyone else who services superchargers and turns their work around in a reasonable amount of time???
Names and phone #s appreciated ......
Thanks,
Steve

I did get a good lead on Darren Mayer Performance Engineering in SW Michigan. I have a call into them. Just 480 miles away.....that's practically next door .

Spoke with Brian this AM at DMPE. Nice guy, decent turn around time, and 1000 miles closer than TBS .

Default that's what I call service

After talking with Brian at DMPE, I got the impression these guys were on their game.
I am happy to say my initial impression was right. They have already diagnosed, repaired, and shipped my blower. Their communication level and professionalism were very impressive.
So compared to the left coast alternatives, these guys were faster, I think better technically, closer (2 days ground to Nashvegas), and more reasonably priced.
I always tell my wife that a guy who finds a honest, competent mechanic is like a woman who's found a gynecologist she really likes ..........he's happy!
So, if your roots style blower needs service/repairs/etc, I would definitely give these guys a call (I don't know/never asked if they repair centrifugal or Whipple type screw chargers).
