Joe,
It is super-kind of you to offer me that.
If it did, I'd decline as I have two spare chassis for 37-116 and it is likely at least one of them is good 
But sadly, no, it won't fit as 37-116 has a simple interstage to drive two 6B4 or 6A5 and no tweeter output winding.
Not only that but to drive 6L6 you need different turn ratio from 6B4 anyway, this is why even 37-116 and 38-116 transformers are not interchangeable 
Thanks very much anyway.
Mike.
