    Bought an air cleaner from a -70 maverick, with the cold outside I need something to do inside, and everything went so good with the other one I renovated so I got one more of E-bay (may be a good present for someone when it´s finished)...:Handshake

    Anyway, these two were screwed on, just wondering what they are for and what they do???:hmmm:

    Remote sensors for your flux capacitor. You get better performance if you don't use them

    Nah, can't be a muffler bearing. It is not chromed!

    They are for the vacuum system, since the tubes are the same size as a vacuum line.. i never had them in my car.. so i can tell you with 100% certainty.. you dont need them
