Not gonna be easy to find... but yes.. Rover 2000TC carbs would probably be your most economical choice. They have 2" SUs. Jaguar would be the other choice, but $$$. Most Jags with 2" carbs woulda had trips.. E-type, MK10. About the only Jaguar I can think of that woulda had two 2" SUs would be an XK150S. (That 'S' is important... standard XK150 had 1.75" carbs like a Volvo).

If you are putting them on a TR3, anything you find should work, as the carbs on the Triumph mount horizontally rather than at an angle like the Volvos do. Horizontal mount is what you'll find on the Rover. Good luck finding them though.
