I worked for Pacific Mutual Life from 1960 t0 1968 as an electronic technician in the Engineering department which was responsible for the maintenance and repair of the Univac II - later 2 Univac II's. Walter Matoes was an engineer and he devised and built and added to the Univac II circuitry, which, when the switch was thrown, would automatically put the machine in Univac I mode or Univac II. I never heard this circuit called an overdrive. Hello !
