Most are the white ceramic 8 amp fuse. I believe there are two pink 16 amp fuses, maybe towarss the passenger side.

Look at the '70-'71 Std and '71 SB wiring diagrams.

You will notice that the fuses in the '70-'71 diagram are all white (8A). But in the '71 SB diagram you will see two fuses are red (16A).
