Your best bet would be to have a custom one fabbed up for your car.

I bought a cowl hood and am fabbing a box that fits in the cowl area on top of the intake manifold, and I will route a 3" or 4" duct from the blower intake to this box, with the idea being to use outside air versus engine compartment air.

There's all kinds of ducting made of synthetic materials out there, which would be easier to route and would not retain as much heat as metals.

>couldn't you use PVC piping (cut to length) with 3" ID and connectors then when you have the layout the way you want fab one out of metal tubing ?

Go to http://www.ducting.com, there's a lot to chose from. Look at the duct at http://www.ducting.com/CWGS.html which for tight radius applications. And, yes, we would have to paint it!
