I still make dye transfer prints ( real ones ) and have several dye sets to print with. One set is a set of Cromax technicolor dyes. The colour space they work in in is very similar to that of the Kodachrome process. The Cromax dyes are anthraquinone's as opposed to the monosulphonates the Kodak DT dyes were made on. How you would replicate this colour space now using contempoary materials would not be easy. But there are a few DT labs around still who may be able to colour match to a Kodachrome.

I have only just signed onto photo net but found this post and thought I should reply. The information you posted is not accurate. I still make genuine dye transfer prints. Even made my own matrix film at one stage when it was unavailable. There are work arounds for masking film, separation film, pan lith film, dyes and papers. I now colour separate on a film recorder but the remainder of the process is analogue. I also make tri colour carbon prints and materials for that are even more difficult to obtain.
