Well, it will "bolt right in" but a passenger car engine doesn't belong in a motorhome.
First, they need a cam that's compatible with "heavy truck" use, as well as compression ratio.
Are you planning on using the heavy truck heads off the 413? Generally these are easy to recognise by the modified water pump outlets. Generally, these have better valves to put up with more heat.
