Will these aftermarket valve covers work on my car?

I have a 88 GTA, centerbolt valve covers. My question is, my valve covers have three holes. 2 on the drivers side for the oil filler and pcv valve, and one on the passenger side for crankcase pressure. These covers only have two holes. I assume I could just remove the pcv and use it as a oil filler hole as well? Right?

I have no idea man. I've been wanting to get some Holly valve covers but I dunno which to get cuase I want it to match perfectly. Anyone who has replaced theres, let both of us know what to look for. I know center bolts is the most important thing.

You are correct, remove the PCV valve and
use it as the oil fill. Sounds dumb, but thats it. And I also have just the two holes on my Edelbrock center bolt covers.
