Never repeat this line again. Amps FRY due to LACK of power/amperage. If you dont want the amp to receive the proper amount of current that THE AMP is DEMANDING (the amp creates the current draw, it wants power) Then you could use 10ga wire. No need for fuses, the wire would limit you. (and melt to a crisp in the process)

The amp kit you bought probably has an ANL inline fuse holder. Simply buy a 80 amp fuse (it is the correct size, the maunfactures do rate things like fuses correctly) NOTE: I am assuming that this is your ony amp in the car. In the distibution block, 80 amp fuse would be the way to go as well. Putting a 20 amp fuse on a amp with 75amps of total current draw (assuming the amp will require this current) is simply a waste of fuses.
