I am not responsible for this definition and can't remember where I heard it but it made me think. I was told " if the engine can't be identified as a known other brand, such as Chevy, Mopar, Ford, Toyota, then call it a Pontiac". Sounds a little strange when you first hear it, but it kinds makes sense in a way too. My personal definition is if it is a Pontiac, it should have substantial Pontiac engineering in the engine package. I don't care who makes the parts. To me, that means stock bore spacing, main spacing, in-line valve arrangement, 10 head bolts, a timing case and a valley cover. However, the canted valve, open bore spacing stuff if perfectly fine for other folks. I wouldn't be running around saying they aren't Pontiacs based on the first definition. Our hobby is so small and getting smaller, excluding people doesn't seem very smart.
