Default Crank Position Sensor

What does it do on the 96 LT4 and why was it added?

Answered my own question.

FSM page 6-256

"The CKP sensor is an electronic device that senses four lugs on the CKP sensor reluctor ring. The sensor provides a signal directly to the PCM in order to process misfiring diagnostics. The CKP sensor has an O-ring seal to protect the sensor from outside oil contamination, and to position the sensor in the center of the engine front cover bore."

Exactly, OBDII was a federal mandate on 96 cars and misfire detection is one of the requirements.
