Its been a while since I stripped out this truck for a new engine and trans (among other things) and I forgot or cant figure out what these two items are for. Their both on the firewall. The first is the relay on the middle pass side and the second is the red wire going through to the cowl near the brake booster. The truck is 1970 c10 org. with a 307 and T350 with crank case ventilation. Thanks.

Im probably wrong because it doesnt make sense for placement but the top picture looks like and external regulator for an alternator and the bottom looks like it is for the temp sending unit. Like I said, may be wrong so just a guess.

Top pic looks like horn relay or a speedwarning buzzer, but that would not be their original location. The red wire looks like what was used for an auxiliary battery.

The top picture is the TCS relay. Check out section 6Y in the service manual. The red wire I can't think of at the moment.
