You have a Torana and HQ set.

 

The Torana ones are the 53mm ones.

You can use either depending on the sump and pipes you are using. You will gain a little bonnet clearance with the lower HQ ones. Sump will be lower though and closer to the crossmember.

 

If you run into clearance problems with the pipes you can try slotting the mounts so you can move things a little.

Or you can clearance the pipes by denting them a little. Will not affect their performance.

Rexy beat me to it, the Holden/Statesman ones are the lower ones. The taller ones are Torana. Even HT-HG are the same as HQ-WB, just the rubber mount attaches differently and the adapter has the extra spots for the bolts (if you swap the adapter and mount out as a pair they are interchangeable).
