Royce, I have both styles. How can I tell which one or if both are mag? When I hooked up the one that hangs on the firewall like in your photo to a battery it makes a flat noise.

This is the back side of a battery horn.

Both horns use the same bell. The magneto horn is about 1/2 the size of a battery horn, and the cover is much more sharply bent.

That is actually an aftermarket "Ahooga" horn shown above Royce - not an original Ford battery horn.

Close enough to get the point across. The one he needs is the MAG horn with the very squared off and very small back end.
