I recently built a 455 ram IV for a friend. We had not a single part, ended up buying everything from PAW {Parts automotive wharehouse} out of Calf. Was very happy with there machine work, parts, service. 455 .030 over was not easy to find. At work right now but If interested I can bring in my book tommorow with the phone number.

There is also Jegs. But for the heck of it, try calling Jim at Jim Butler Performance in Tenn. My opinion, there isn't anyone else out there that knows more about Pontiacs than Jim. Super nice guy, and he will spend time on the phone with you to get you started.
