3157 sockets in 86 bed

[badmts]

I want brighter tail/stop lights and noticed that 3157's seem brighter than 1157's -Is that true and can i get 3157 sockets at NAPA that will go right into the stock rear tail light housings? also I would like brighter headlights but DO NOT want HID and i already have the SILVERLITE but they were/are a disappointment -any ideas would be helpful-a little info truck is 86 longbed 4x4 with 40amp alt (tested yesterday at 14.4 volts) but I can get a 65 AMP for 35.00 bucks -would that help or not?

There are 3457 bulbs that fit where the 3157s go and are 4 times brighter than the 3157.
