Don't know if this is what you are looking for, I installed a 76 column in my 66 with the matching Saginaw gear. I ID the wires downstream, then ID the new wires by function and mated them up. You might make a map on paper. Get the horn out of the way first, so it doesn't blow when you mash the brakes. Oh You may also have to add a ground wire around the rag joint connection for better horn connection. Mine was part time at first.
You will need a circuit tester and in about an hour have it all worked out.
