Generally, no. That place is best avoided except for things that are the exact same no matter where you buy them, like motor oil and spark plugs.

I don't know about the second one, but NAPA is good stuff in most cases.

Can anyone confirm which pads are supposed to be used? I see one person said the 1500 pads and another said the 2500 pads

I think you can use either. 1500 pads will likely fit the rotors better.

I use the 2500 pads with 2500 calipers and 1500 rotors.

HeyYou knows what he's talking about though!

2500 pads work and actually cover the whole rotor face vs the 1500 pads.

Also could anyone help with #S4347 power stop calipers? Can't find anywhere if they are the single piston caliper or the twin. Emailed them but figured i'd ask on here too

Do they really want over 200 bucks for a pair of calipers???? Holy smoke. Get them at your local parts store, probably less than 30 bucks each.
