There is a good explanation, with pictures of the adapter used on the convertible and station wagons with x frame as well as the rotation of the flat spot on the solenoid in the Early Ford v8 Club 49-50-51 Restoration Guide . Chapter 4 page 4-6.

Changing the rotation of the flat spot on the solenoid to 5 degree from the standard 35 degree angle is easy to accomplish.

Hope this helps,
