79 400?

Hey guys can you help me out? I have a 79 F-150 with a 400 4speed and as you may know in Pennsylvania they are now doing emission testing from 75 to 94 its just a visual inspection though. Anyway could someone please help me in finding out what emission components are on the truck and how they are hooked up any help would be great thanks.

On the right side of this page is a link for licensed Ford factory shop manuals. That would be a very good source to determine the original equipment.

EDIT: After viewing my post just click on the blue link.
