Ebpv...
Just wondering if any of u fellow FTE would happen to know were i could get a exhaust back pressure valve ... i gutted mine a few months ago thinking it would be a good idea since i didnt tow much now im towing more often and would like to convert mine into an exhaust brake.

I have one, but its the "sticking" unit that you dont want. I would give it to you but its really, really frustrating. I wouldnt wish that kind of frustration on anyone. Im sure ron will help you out. However, I dont think my pedistal leaked, well much anyways. Good luck.

Are you referring to the wastegate in the turbine housing now? There is that, and the butterfly EBV valve in the systems and that is about it except for the items that activate them.

well the picture i put up was off a google seach to show you guys what i was talking about and if im not mistaken it should be of and OBS 94-97 7.3. and ron i actually used my older model ebpv housing off my old turbo and it bolted right up. im kinda embarresed seeing as i gutted the housing one day and a week later the brake mod came up .And rebelchevy02 i would really appreciate it if i could , but i wonder does it stick because of the sensor or because its some how jammed?

Ill have to look at it again, if you want, i can take a pic tomarro, and send it to you, pre shipping it. I cant remember what it looks like. Im sure you could take it out and file it or something, it just might not be as good a close as the factory wanted, if you know what i mean, but it could still be functional. I didnt want to mess with it, and i hate it, so i replaced it with nonebpv equiptment. It really upset me lol.
