Jack, the current Hilborn corporation hasn't supported Pontiac engines for decades, is the point I was making. When was the last time you looked on a Hilborn catalogue, and they were offering a new Pontiac specific setup?
I'm casually looking for an 8 stack setup, but I'm not finding anything at a reasonable cost. I've actually considered purchasing a used chevy setup, and adapting it to a Pontiac head.
I can buy chevy setups as cheaply as $600 used, but a Pontiac setup is like looking for hens teeth. They're made from that rare alloy, "unobtanium".
Just a note here about future parts and service, Kinsler, located in Michigan, says that they can flow, and supply parts for any, and all, mechanical injection sysytems, so you will still be able to run Hilborn systems.
There's lots to read over at H.A.M.B. about Hilborn's exit.........

Alkydigger.com also can flow any system, and supply parts for any brand of mechanical injection.
