Question brake pads vs. calipers

i'm new here and have read the tech on disc conversion. i also work for an auto parts store and have been doing some price shopping. A couple of things i ran into that i need answered. First of all, what years taht ran the dual piston calipers can i use in the swap? And secondly, the only brake pads i can find that are used with the single piston calipers are organic and not semi-metallic. How can i find the correct semi-metallic pad? So far i have not been successful in finding a cross reference. Any info would greatly be appriciated.

I found an answer through on af my co-workers today. I was searching for a semi-mtallic pad for a 73-76 caliper (single piston) and found a part number that was organic only (D50). The semi-metallic is MKD360
