+20% clamp means the new clutch is 20% more clamping force than the stock clutch.

On the other hand, you can't be serious.

Previous owner receipts can be a bit tricky to decipher. Take the example of my folder pile... 90% of receipts are hand written from years ago and lacking the same information as yours. Some are quite broad descriptors such as "high lift sport cam" with no additional details (I disassembled to find they were Crane cams and had part numbers stamped out of view on the end). This is not atypical. I wouldn't expect to phone up the shop that did the work with only a receipt number and expect them to have any detailed record of parts used on a job unless I had picked the car up with that recent work completed the day before.

You weren't even the customer of record for the work... these guys don't owe you anything and if you flipped an attitude or temper tantrum on the phone then I'm not surprised they told you to take a hike.

My $.02.
