3.73 was req'd on the L69, but IIRC, was an option for LG4 cars. I know it was for earlier years, but not sure about '86.

It was only available as an option in a couple of years; and very very very very rarely ordered. People who wanted better-than-grocery-cart performance, and were willing to pay extra for it, usually were also willing to pay extra to get something other than a LG4 to start with. Especially by 86.

IIRC in 86, 2.73 was the standard ratio with the LG4/auto combo, and 3.08 with LG4/5-speed. Most likely that's what's in it.
