(OP)
Do any of you folks know that any manufacturer can make metal clad 13.8kv switchgear with say 8 gauge metal instead of ANSI 37.2 required minimum 11 gauge?

A Google search for metal-clad switchgear should turn up a lot of independent "tin-benders" who buy breaker kits from the major breaker manufacturers and build their own gear.
I'd check with maybe PowerCon, Controlled Power, Lakeshore as a start. I'm sure there are many more.

Proper installation is everything. An option is to order switchgear with a seismic rating. Manufacturers typically add gussets & stiffeners to gear to obtain the seismic rating. This will help to assure that squareness is maintained. In the end though...Good Installation.
