DieselSite BLBATH Black Billet Aluminum Thermostat Housing – 1999-2003 7.3L Powerstroke
Upgrade the weakest point in your 7.3 Powerstroke cooling system. The factory stamped-steel thermostat housing is thin, rusts quickly, warps under bolt torque, and is treated as a single-use “disposable” part. Once you remove it, the flanges often won’t seal again. The DieselSite BLBATH solves this with a precision-machined billet aluminum housing built for repeated use and years of leak-free service.
Key Benefits
- Billet aluminum construction resists corrosion and will not rust or pit like the OEM steel housing
- Rigid flanges that do not bend or distort when torqued
- Improved sealing surface for a reliable, leak-free thermostat install
- Reusable — remove and reinstall as needed without buying a new housing every time
- Clean, professional black finish that looks as good as it performs
Fitment
- 1999–2003 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke Super Duty (F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550)
- Some 2002–2003 E-Series vans (verify housing style — older E-Series use a different design)
What’s Included
- DieselSite BLBATH black billet thermostat housing
- New gasket
- Replacement mounting bolts
Installation Note Torque housing bolts to 100 in-lbs maximum. Do not exceed this specification.
Stop replacing cheap stamped-steel housings every time you service the thermostat. The DieselSite BLBATH is the last thermostat housing most 7.3 owners ever need to buy.
