Conical or full width doesnt make a differance. Maybe the 78's came with the new brake set up and the full width hub, or maybe the late 78's, its hard to remember. The two important things I feel are the fact that the cable is much straighter and the new style brake lever is longer for more leverage. The backing plates are about the same except for the sealing edge and with drilling out the old one (if needed) the newer cam works just fine with the old style plate and sealing edge that the older full width wheels have. I have some extras of these pieces to complete the changover if needed.
