This is more from the 1968 Motor Trend article............

"Pontiac did not cherish the notion of racing with Chevy power but it made the car competitive right off the bat for anyone who wanted to run it. Toronto, Ontarian Terry Godsall wanted to race. He hired driver Craig Fisher and imported an Al Bartz 304 Chevy that put out nearly the same power as Donohue's. By this time Chevy had become incensed to the point of issuing a bulletin to dealers not to sell their hot cross-ram manifold to Firebird owners but Godsall managed to bluff his way through."
