power blisters vs. louvers

Will the '91-92 power blisters fit on the older, say '87 IROC hoods built with louvers? They appear to be the same outer shape but I want to be sure that they fit in the spots before buying the blisters.

Do the blisters attach with studs like the louvers do?

Thanks!

The blisters attach like the louvers. I believe they will also fit that hood. Don't get the blisters for a flat hood by mistake because the aftermarket ones won't fit the IROC hood sometimes.

The hoods themselves are identical and the blisters & louvers can easily be swapped.

I traded a 86 IROC hood to a buddy with a 92 & he got the blisters to put on it.
