It would be quite simple to replicate spread of the standard VexPro Ball Shifter of 2.27.
All you would need to do is use the 8mm to .500in Hex adapter from Andy Mark on the CIMs. Then mount a 24 tooth .500in Hex bore (27-2704) and 40 tooth .500in Hex bore (217-2708) from VEXpro on the CIMS. Then use the standard gear set (60 and 44 tooth) on the shifter/output section.
