is the front and rear main the same as a usdm pulsar?

if so, does anyone know how much it costs and if i can just pick it up at a local parts store?

thanks

I was quoted $6.40 for the rear main the other day. Front main I was quoted $8.xx but I am buying a new oil pump, and it comes with a front main. Its $140 from the dealership btw, which is about $10 cheaper than everywhere else.

i have my fire-resitance suit on...but how are the Autozone/Advance Auto rear main seals? no different than OEM i suppose? i'd hate to put it in and then have to take it back out because it wasn't the right size..i had that problem when trying to rebuild some calipers..
