2 holes for master cylinder in firewall ?

I just bought a 62 SB that has no drivetrain. It does not have the master cylinder attached and there are 2 big holes side by side where it mounts. Is one for a hydraulic clutch cylinder or did this truck have some kind of power brake set up? Thanks

You're right the holes are for the master cyl, clutch cyl combo.

One hole is for the brakes, one is for the clutch. I believe they used a dual master cylinder set up for 60-63. My '61 came equipped that way, but my dad's '65 has a mechanical clutch set up. www.mpbrakes.com sells a power dual master cylinder for that application.
