you can make a manifold to fit that head and run a single amal (splayed head can be done but i think looks crap) , quite straight forwards job any enginnering shop will do and the amal spec is for the tiger

Did Triumph make a straight head Tiger ? If so they might have a manifold straight from the shelf .

tiger head has a bolt on manifold where the two inlet stubs are on your head , these need to be removed , its quite common as the tiger heads are hard to find now .
