thermostat housing for L-32

I'm having a bugger of a time finding a thermostat housing for my 3.4 L-32. I have the Edlebrock mainifold / Holley 390 set-up... and I find the tapped bolt pattern is 2.5" center to center ( virtually eliminates all the GM V-8 stuff)...and the neck opening needs to point (clock location between 6 & 7) towards the rad. One of those adjustabe babies would be great, but the bolt patterns are wrong.

I've worn out O'Reileys, Advanced and a gazillion websites. Anyone have a source they'd share?
Thanks
Don B.

Try Dave Vale at V8Conversions v8con@globalnet.co.uk

He has just made some with the outlet coming off at the right angle.
