95+ timing chain cover

So now that i have my block and heads for the 94 (big thanks to Pampered-Z) i figured id do the opti conversion. Picked up an almost brand new opti for a 96 z, so now am on the hunt for a timing chain cover that will be used for this on the 94. I know i can buy new but figured id ask here first. Im sure there will be more i will need before this whole swap is said and done but ill get to that as the needs arise.

Do you need a 95, or 96+, there is a difference.

The opti doesn't matter. You either need a 95 or a 96+ f body timing cover. The 96-97 is sought after for the 24x swap so will cost more. I believe 94+ b-body will work too. I forget the vette interchange.
