fuel regualator

Did I get the right part?

I was at the International part store and picked up their Yellow spring kit to boost the fuel pressure. As I understand their spring is yellow and not blue like Fords. The spring in the kit was 1/8" shorter than the stainless OEM spring. I put it in and it seems to run fine. But I am wonder if this is the right spring. Package #1830915C91. There was a brass fitting, green O-ring and a dull metal plunger with a trianglar end. The plunger in the regulator was brass and round which I left in the regulator.
Did I do right???
Thanks

VT365 is the same engine mechanically for the most part. Very different tuning though
