Not sure where the serial number break is, but the four pad metalic disc will take more heat. It will also still pull when it cools if you do overheat it, also will hold better if it get some oil on it form a rear seal or front input seal. The four pad disc should also have a nine spring pressure plate insted of the older six.
Hope this helps

Round disc was probably a fiber disc, while the 4 pad was ceramic. As stated by gcalent, the 4 pad will take more heat and oil , but its alot harder on the flywheel.
