If you can find some bug fresh air tube connectors (steel tubing pieces (like 
a sleeve) about 2"od that attach to the upper heat exchanger on a bug motor) 
you can use standard 2" flexible foil tube found at your FLAPS. I used this 
method on my Roadster 2, since it's got a header and dual quiet mufflers. This 
might not be a perfect solution, but the only place I know of that sells T-3 
sized flex tube is CIP (not cheap either). I hope this helps.
