Only 10% to 80% of the retarding force is transferred through the fluid coupling of most torque converters. The BD AutoLoc commands the lock-up clutch of the torque converter to stay engaged when the BD Exhaust Brake is activated. This allows up to 100% of the retarding force to be transferred while in 3rd and 4th gear. Also, transmission oil temperatures will remain low because of little or no slippage occurring in the converter in these gears.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BD name became recognized in 1989, when the company introduced the first exhaust brake for the burgeoning Diesel pick-up truck market. BD's roots, however, actually date back to 1972, when Valley Fuel Injection Ltd. (VFI) first opened its doors. Today, Valley Fuel Injection and BD Diesel Performance are one, with specialty divisions that focus on Diesel power train components.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"BD Diesel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47878250299650,"sku":"BDD1030390","price":376.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/0618\/0354\/files\/67e85cb0-bfd7-4f99-bf95-3a397cb91d2c-800.jpg?v=1785539264","url":"https:\/\/www.lethalperformance.com\/products\/bd-diesel-autoloc-ford-dodge-chev-6-5lt","provider":"Lethal Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
