Cummins in a 2001 Dodge van?

Hey guys,

Do you think it is possible,or has it been done before?I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Wagon Van 2500(8 lug),and I miss having a Cummins.Do you think it would be possible to squeeze a non intercooled 12 valve under the hood/doghouse?You think it is too heavy?How about a 4BT?Would a 4BT have enough grunt to still haul the van,and a 5000lb camper around,or would it need significant work to do that?
