although I had previously read that the L75 (reg 455/4bbl) was automatic only for 1971-1974, wasn't it recently revealed that for '73 & '74, you could in fact get a four speed stick with it?

I believe that '73/4spd numbers were recently shared here;
Is there something to suggest that absolutely none of the 1974 W66 L75 cars were stick?

The 'ram air' boots and hood screens I have were taken off of a '74 W66 L75/M40 car that spent much of it's life in Saskatchewan, and was rusted well beyond repair;
It was a nice car that I probably have pictures of somewhere;
It was a white car with deluxe red interior.
