Mike, I'm not entirely current on this, but I think GM, within the last
year or so, bought back Packard, so Pioneer-Packard is now just Pioneer.
GM has renamed the connector division from Packard to Delphi. All the
latest connector catalogs at work are from Delphi, even though much of
the stock looks the same. The Pioneer-Packard catalog you have would
probably do just fine, since the part numbering seems to have remain
unchanged. The change I notice is that the Delphi catalogs include some
technical specs on other equipment (such as day-run lighting modules)
used by GM, and some of the connectors previously available from
Pioneer-Packard (such as the Weatherpacks with the variable key inserts)
have been discontinued.

Cheers.
