Wiring o-drive (and other stuff) 140-160 1969

I have a "Project" parked in my drive. Somebody wondered if $500 for a 1974 needing a clutch. Perhaps I should have asked if free was too much for a 1972 142e parked outside for 8+ years with a broken piston. Engine was in boxes and transmission was out. I bought a 75 245 for a donor engine. Then I decided that due to the suspect condition of the fuel injection wiring and hoses, I would attempt to convert to the K-jet system of the 75. Also would have had to purchase a new head gasket and put the original head on to get the sensor on the front of the head. Maybe not the best coice but still reversible.

My specific question is how is the overdrive wired? I have a Haynes and a Chiltons but neither one really shows me where the wires are routed and as I didn't see it originally installed, I'd like to get it right the first time.

I have lots of other little issues which I guess I really should save for other posts.
