Hmm interesting, the rocker covers have the ctr bolt fixings like an ls1, i think all chevy small blocks ( cast iron ) have the bolts around the edge??

"V8 HSV" is correct that is a 5.0ltr Holden engine in a VT1 Clubsport.......

My 78 vette had chevy L-82 as original fit, that had bolts around the edge of the valve covers. I have fitted a 89 ZZ4 small block that has centre bolts. think it changed in 88 or thereabouts. Both are 350 cid and Iron blocks, although the ZZ4 has alloy heads and intake. hope this is of interest!
