I replaced the broken speedo cable on my '78 L-82 w/auto trans, and saw this cover plate on the side next to the speedometer gear. Does anyone know if there is something needing service inside? THANKS!

That be the governor cover on a 350, Joe. Nothing in there you need to worry aboot unless you are having a shifting issue. Thumbs Up

Thanks Joel for the answer and for adjusting the photo. The trans is not broke so I won't fix it!
