i think the power pack head's had just at pointer in the middle of the square pad, instead of the double hump in pad on the later 60's head's .

Not for nothin' but Corvettes had Fuel Injection back in the '50s...

They're both an "L" block, right? Why not? See how the gaskets line up, for one. Worst come to worst, you might have to use the 89 heads so the TBI lines up.
