Default SBC with a Wieand 142 blower ?

First I would like to say hello. I have been trolling around here for a while and have found some great info.
I have found I am in need of some suggestions now. I have a 1989 Power Play 185XLT with a sbc in it. I am installing a Wieand 142 blower on it and having some trouble figuring out what to do with the t-stat housing and crossovers to get everything to fit.
anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Jay

you are going to need to use a jet boat type therm housing or the offset marine adapter to get it to work....you are not going to find many s/b blowers on here

Thank you. I found what I was looking for through wieands tech support. It's the exact setup that a big block uses also.
I know there isn't many s/b on here, but I figured it was worth a shot. Everyone had to start somewhere.
Thanks for the info
Jay
