I'm not too familar with the 8.3, but I know it has great torque at the low end. I think the weight would be the killer of this project...

On the positive side the ISC is completly electronic IIRC...

I know some of the diesel pusher RV's have the 5.9's in them. I just can't imgage them doing very well performance wise.
