That's exactly what they are/were for. Even back in 78 emissions was rearing its ugly head. If I remember right you should have 4 on one side and 3 on the other, but I honestly can't be sure.

The AIR pump/injector tubes go back to the Buick 350's in the late 60's, if not all the way back to the Rambler 327. I think the AMC's always had them, in Jeep form.
