Different versions of it - absolutely.
I replaced the WP on the '02 Silverado in January of last year.
Three issues:
1. Couldn't get the old thermostat off so left it - hey it was working so why tempt fate trying fix what ain't broke?
2. the tri-connector for the hoses broke on me so a run to my FLAPS provided a repair item that worked with a small amount of fiddling around.
3. Then as I was carefully installing the new unit....one of the hoses was in the way - so I brought the unit back out and when I did I tilted it and half the bolts slipped out

- and after a tedious and thorough manhunt - I couldn't find two of them. Luckily I found a couple in my spares that worked, although they weren't quite as long as the originals.
18 months later - no problems........
