Who makes them? I assume they just have a NAPA sticker on the box, sold under license.

Those thermostat's don't have the new style gasket, so they will prob end up leaking like the originals.

Parts look and fit as OME,i'm happy as everything works fine,how long they last well we'll just have to wait and see.I had just done a complete brake job using TSW stuff and the Porterfield R4 pads are very nice i'm impressed with the feel.
