Air Conditioning Compressor for a 1980 900 Turbo

All,
The A/C compressor on my 1980 900 Turbo seized several months ago and I'm now in the process of researching a replacement for it. My Indy service technician passed two sets of numbers from the existing compressor: 062071515 (no idea if it's a serial number) and 1134354 (apparently a GM part #). Ran the GM part # with a local Chevy dealer and the parts rep said that it's been superceded by a new part # -- 88964871 and prices out at $466.
I checked Advance Auto Parts and Autozone for the heck of it using yr/make/model. I know, I know, I should be shunned from Saabnet for even considering those guys, but I'm baking alive without AC. Both came up with four different Ready-Aire compressors (2145, 2161, 2162, 2162N: Prices range from $226-$330). Looks like I have a choice of SD 508 or SD 510 types (Sanden - I think). Only problem is that I'm not sure which type I have.
Any guidance/insight would be greatly appreciated. I'm moving from DC to FL and will die from dehydration if I don't get the A/C working. Thank you.
Mark
