Ford E-350 earns full certification, number of orders increase
DALLAS, Texas – May 30, 2007 – BAF Technologies, the
premier provider of natural gas and propane vehicle upfits, today
announced that it has received CARB and EPA certification, including
OBD II, for the Ford E350. The E350 joins the Crown Victoria in
achieving full certification using BAF’s proprietary CalComp technology,
meeting all SULEV requirements.
“Our CalComp
system is proving to be a reliable system that has applications across
the multiple platforms,” says John Bacon, president. “From here we will
pursue certification of the F-Series using the same system as we continue
to expand our product line with growing market demand.”
BAF already has an
order bank of more than 100 E350 vehicles and the company is projected to
upfit more than 600 vehicles in 2007 across its diverse and growing product
line which also includes the Ford E450, Ford Crown Victoria and the GM 8.1L.
Meanwhile, as market
demand grows, BAF’s engineering team continues to expand. The company
welcomed industry veteran Pete Campbell as Project Manager to the seasoned
team. Mr. Campbell previously worked at Ford Motor Company where during
his 15-year tenure he amassed deep expertise in powertrain control systems,
niche vehicles, certification processes and regulatory compliance. Prior
to his work at Ford, Mr. Campbell worked at TDM World Conversions where
he also worked with niche vehicles including alternative fuel applications.
BAF continues to
work closely with Clean Energy, SCAQMD and NYSERDA to enable all teams
to achieve their alternative fuel goals.
Those interested
in purchasing these vehicles should contact their Ford dealer.
