[Spridgets] Cold Air Box

I am not racing so not worried about it being legal.  I already have K&N filters and stub stacks.  I was thinking of making a box that surrounds the filters and stacks and has a 2 1/2 to 3 inch diameter hose or duct of some sort going down to just below the bottom edge of the bonnet on the left side.  Routed similar to the heater air intake on the other side.

There are probably simpler and cheaper ways to get a performance advantage 
unless your car is a racer and the mod is race legal.  For example do you 
have a thermal barrier (Camcoat) coating on the inlet manifold, are K&N 
filters and stub stacks fitted to the carbs etc.

Hi all 
  you creative Spridget owners

I have a '61 bugeye with a 1275 
  engine.  I have been considering trying 
to build a cold air box 
  intake.  Has anyone on the list done this, and 
what are your thoughts 
  about any advantage in performance.  Is there 
anything manufactured 
  to fit a twin SU HS2 setup?

Thanks for any wisdom or 
  thoughts.
