wiring assistance

For the past year I have been slowly putting my 71 Blazer back together and I am now at the point where I am running a peerless wiring kit, but have run into an issue. I have these two relays (?) on the drivers side firewall behind the brake booster that I cant identify and don't seem to have any left over wires to run to them. Can anyone tell me what these are and let me know if I missed a step somewhere? Thanks

Re: wiring assistance

I believe they are part of the TCS (Transmission Controlled Spark) system. This was an emission control system that somehow limited the spark advance unless the trans was in high gear (I think). The harness connects to the transmission and to a vacuum actuator by the carburetor. Most people seem to have removed all this.
I don't think it's the horn relay - that's on the inside of the cab.
