Will these valve covers fit an '88 Iroc-z?

Im in the market for some cool valve covers. However, under the application menu it says: CHEVROLET CAMARO 1967-1986

Can somebody please explain to me what that means?

If you still have your stock engine then no. You would need the center bolt style which were introduced on v-8 F body engines in 1987. In other words, instead of the mounting bolts being two on top and two on the bottom like in the pic, all four would be down the center of the valve cover. See pic in link.
