assistance on how to replace stock postive battery cable

I have a 89 iroc and the stock positive battery cable has a big black wire running to the starter but it also has two more wires, a black one connecting to something and a red one connecting to something.
My question is why does the positive battery cable from autozone only have the big black wire and one small wire? Shouldn't it have 2 wires like the original ? How do you go about replacing the stock positive battery cable?...or atleast I think its stock.

Get a generic cable and a clamp on battery terminal. Put as many wires into the clamp as you want
