Those covers look right to me. To be honest, I'm still not clear on the whole tab issue, but the covers themselves match mine.

here is a pic. the top cover in the pic (drivers) is not a HP one as it has the two plug wire tabs for a non hp car. knock them off and you have a HP cover.
in my reseach this is a 70 cover but if i am wrong somebody please correct me.
Thats a 70 C body cover, like you said knock those two tabs off & your go to go... 
BTW Don't acually knock them off, grind through them very carefully, it's easy to destroy the covers...

HI there. ok. One of my valve covers matches the top valve cover in the pic. So i grind off the tabs and im in buissness. But my other valce cover doesnt match the one in the pic on the bottom. The one in the pic only has the pvc hole and smooth on the other and. Mine has a raised round area at the other end but no hole stamped in it. Liek the factory raised the area but didnt stamp a hole. But it does have the pvc hole at the other end. So what doesthat mean? one of mine is incorrect? ?>ron
Sounds like you have the wrong pass side one. does it look like the top one in Chris'pic of a '71. '70's are a one year only unit.

gtx6970-the set you have listed as 70's I'm thinking are 71's-as they have the 3 nipple breather for 71-and they look just like 2 sets of 71's I just redid-one set I still am finishing the tabs on-I have a set of 70's (I thought)but was later told they were C body-Joe
His covers are definately 70 but off a California car...Look at your cover that has a PCV grommet, it also has a second raised pad...Typical of a 71 not present on a 70...
