47 Overdrive

Well here I go again. I decided to finally connect up the overdrive since my black 47 Packard tops out at about 45MPH. Read up on all the manuals for the R9 overdrive located the safety switches and installed the black relay box. So I figured a good starting point would be to touch a 6 volt wire to pin 4 on the solenoid and hear the chatter of the solenoid, but guess what, I find a R11 instead of the R9 overdrive. So now I need to find a good wiring diagram, I looked at the 49 schematics, but I need a little bit more detail. I'm assuming that I'm better off with the R11, so any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
