Conversions may be done on any of the Diesel MBE 900 series models with the F 65 series Detroit Diesel engine for model years 2003 - 2009. NGV Motori, USA and CVS also announced that the NGV Motori, USA/CVS's partnership is also making available an EPA-certified, CNG Dedicated Conversion for the Ford E 450 Super duty 6.8L V10 engine and the E350 Super Duty 5.4L gas engine.

NGV Motori, USA and CVS are continuing their collaboration/partnership in bringing more systems for more engines to the US Market.
