E4OD: Is this VSS?

That is a plastic plug to plug the hole in the tail shaft that the VSS would go if the vehicle it came out of had to have it there, the vehicle that the transmission came out of its VSS was probably on the rear differential.
You should remove the tail housing to make sure the output shaft has a gear on it for a speedometer before installation.

open to suggestions
so you're saying that it may not be enabled internally (that is, just because it is there, it won't necessarily work). i thought the VSS was a hall-effect deal, not gear driven... guess i need to look into it more.
here's my issue:
i'm putting a 5.8 and E4OD from a '95 F150 into a '52 -- using the '95 wiring harnesses. the VSS is on the rear axle, but it goes to the PSOM unit first (integrated speedo) to condition the signal, then on to the PCM, then back to the tranny to control shifting. maybe i just haven't talked to the right people yet, but it seems like the PSOM part isn't going to work with aftermarket speedos, so i was wondering about running a second VSS off the tranny direct to an aftermarket speedo, and let the rear VSS and PSOM control the tranny as intended.
anybody have any thoughts on this?
