I'd have thought that the venturi cooling effect would soon "sink" away the 
relatively small amount of heat you'd get from an electrical heater

In my (UK) experience the problem's related to intake air temp so pulling 
warmer air in during low-temperature conditions should cure the problem

I'd look at routing air round the exhaust manifold - is there room to do that? 
There's plenty of hot air under the bonnet of my TR4!
