8, 9 & 10 speed cassettes all fit the same freehubs. and with a spacer a 7 speed cassette will fit too.
one cone wrench and one regular wrench (both metric) are all that are needed to adjust the crank bearings. I have a set of thin metric wrenches from Amazon, they were less than $20, plus a large set of comb metric from HF that were pretty inexpensive; and a set of Avenir cone wrenches - between the three sets; I have been able to handle the bearings on my bikes.
The FFS was not common when they were produced in the late '70s early '80s ; long forgotten by most now.
