Hi Derek, I did this once with an MGA and to overcome the problem of the
breather pipe I made a 1/2" spacer (use an old gasket as a template) between
the Ram pipes and the Carbs. I then drilled and tapped the spacer from the
edge into the main air hole to accept a tube which was connected to the
breather pipe.
Infact I made 2 and connected the breather to both carbs.
See the following link for some pictures.

Hope this helps?
Kindest regards
