You will need a matching valve cover with bolts that go around instead of center bolts.

Also the 98 coil packs mount different, but I believe your coil packs should mount to a 98 valvecover, if not you might consider buying the coil pack relocate kit from thunder

Are you going to have them ported first? It can be done but there is a lot of space restrictions with the 98 heads if you are planning on spending any money on them I would stick with 99 and up heads. I have several sets for sale. I even have a set of 00 heads ported just need some valves and springs to finish them up.

how much are you sellign them for, and would you considere a trade and cash deal??? i bought some heads but when i got them they where 98 heads something i din't notice before so now i iam going to have to by new valve covers and a relocate kit for the coil packs so i just prefer to get rid of them.
i got a pair of new heads and the ones on the car that have like 50 k on them i'll get rid of them bare or assembled just let me know if something like that sounds ok to you. If not how much you want for them.
