You should have 128 heads. I think there 90 degree bolt holes in the middle.

Is it possible to have lt1 heads? I'm having a 383 stocker being built for me out of state and I told them it was a 87 Vette and he asked if it had center bolt valve covers and yes then they have the right heads for me to use when they build it just need to make sure I don't get the wrong heads for my intake

No you wouldn't have LT1 heads on that car, LT1 is reverse cooled and the coolant passages won't line up.

Look under the valve covers to get the casting number.

If it wasn't such a pain to get the covers off I would the motor not pulled yet waiting for the new motor to come
Is there numbers in the back of the head I might be able to read with a light and a mirror?
