You have probably seen mine at www.engalt.com/kr2.htm under the engine
section.  It worked good for me.  Not so sure how well it would work with
the Ellison carb.  I had the updraft Zenith which necessitated an extended
lower center section of the cowl so it was easy to run the air intake line
under the oil cooler.  I also had a separate carb and cooler inlet in the
cowl.  With the Ellison I am assuming that you have it mounted right under
the engine and don't have the cowl coming down as far as I did and would
have it behind the cooler if you mounted the cooler like I did.  Of course,
that may not be a real bad location either.  It would give you warm, but
likely not hot, air off of the cooler into the carb.  My gut feeling is that
would halp to atomize the mixture and would help reduce the chance of carb
ice without the air being so hot that it would decrease your power
noticeably.
