    So I went to Advance Auto today and picked up a new Fuel Pressure regulator for my GT.. everything looked the same from the quick glance under the hood to the new part, so I went home and let the car sit for a few hours to cool down. I proceeded to de-pressurize the fuel rail and remove the regulator... once i get to out and put it side to side with the new one I realized the new regulator was way smaller than the new one and would not fit. so now I'm stuck so I call a Taxi and go back to Advance with the old Regulator in hand. the Parts guy looked a little confused as to why these 2 parts were different. so after a few minutes of trying to figure out what is going on he looks up a fuel pressure regulator for a 2000 GTP .... and that one was very similar to my old regulator.... same size and configuration ..... So my question is: was the that Advance computers just wrong or does my car have something weird going on?

    my work has the wrong part numbers listed for front caliper guide pins, but so does partsource.

    The rear ones are actually the front ones somehow.
