I already have all my kernels with version numbers.

make zlilo is not necessary, try
$ make zImage && cp boot/arch/i86/zImage /vmlinux-x.x.xx
$ vi /etc/lilo.conf && lilo

make zlilo will automatically install vmlinuz and manage your kernels, which
is great if you are building a stable kernel, and only need one backup.
If you are playing with x.[13579].x you probably want a bit more control over
which kernels you keep around.
