Dave:
Thanks for the idea and a great setup for the twin carb.  The source for the
duct flange is a big help.

 To quote the PO of my car who did the very same thing:

"The simple solution that I did was to buy the twin-snout air cleaner
housing
from an early ('69 - '70) TR6 and run 2 paper hoses (the ones that are sold
for
carb preheat) to the rad shroud just above and to the left of the carbon
canister. I bought a couple of aluminum duct flanges from
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/ductflanges.php and rivited
them
to the shroud where I slipped the hoses on. Seems to work great with the
stock
carb setup. "

And here's the result: http://lbcs.ca/images/P1080787_1024x768.jpg

Anyone have a source for an inexpensive cold air intake setup for an
aluminum shroud radiator duct.  I know Richard Good has a nice setup, but I
am looking for the economical "racer" look.  I am thinking of some sort of
tubing connector mounted to the shroud that the flexible tubing could clamp
to and then have the tube end right in front of the front carb and have a
clamp/adapter to secure.  Anyone have some pics and a parts source they are
willing to share.  Many thanks,
