Re: Need help

The top one is for the wiper motor (the large one), the one towards the center of the firewall is for the speedometer cable, and the lower one is for the e-brake cable. I think.

Re: Need help

Is it a standard transmission cab? The lowest hold could be for a Z-bar clutch setup. I really don't know, but I'll find out when I convert my auto into a Z-bar setup with a Muncie

Re: Need help

No one has a 79 that they can walk out to and look at to see what the bottom hole is?
