Why are there so many and how do you know which one you
need?

Non AC 84-86: Low amp two wire.

AC 84-86: High amp two wire.

Non AC 87-88: Low amp single wire.

AC 87-88: High amp single wire.

Really, the gentleman you're buying from should be able to tell you which one you'll need, although you can swap to a higher amp one for speakers, and you can switch over to single wire for ease of access.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

Okay, thanks. Is 80 amps enough for AC?

I believe that's what it is... You could try google, I'm sure it's posted. If not, the good doctor here will know.
