BD BrakeLoc Exhaust Brake for 1995 - 2003 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke with Automatic Transmission
Part # 1030750
Make the Most of Your Power Stroke’s Heat Riser Valve!
BD’s BrakeLoc integrates with the engine heat riser valve’s control wire, converting the factory heat riser valve into an electronically-controlled exhaust brake. For models with automatic transmissions, the BD AutoLoc computer is necessary to adjust torque converter lock-up values and optimize retarding power. For specific application details, please reach out to a BD technical sales representative.
Note that, because the heat riser is activated electronically, there is typically a 2-3 second delay between the time the valve is actuated and engine retarding occurs. While the BrakeLoc is an economical alternative to an exhaust brake, it is NOT intended as a substitute. For quicker, more effective braking, we recommend the vacuum-actuated BD Brake exhaust brake system, which utilizes our Variable Orifice Technology, and won’t stick like the stock heat riser can.
NOTE: Valve show in picture is for reference only, not included with either part number.
