Welcome to CO. Yes the five speed gearbox was combined with the little 260 V8 to provide better gas mileage than the larger 350 V8 would deliver. This was a new option for 1976. The V8 was an optional engine for the Omega that year over the baseline six. No production numbers on the SX package though, sorry.
