Question about a diesel engine in a Ford 800

This bus is a 1995 F800 with an FD-1060 diesel engine in it.
I am unfamiliar with that engine. Anybody out there heard
of or had any experience with this engine.
BTW, I'm a newbie. I thought I made an intro. in the general
topic area but I haven't seen it yet so I'm assuming I messed
something up.
From South Dakota am waiting for a reply from a member
called N0rlander to call me on his bus he has for sale. I live
about 125 miles from where his bus is parked; so it's close.
Anyway, Howdy all.

Below is a pic of what I'm living in right now. It's a little
small for a dwelling in these parts come winter.

That is what Ford calls a Cummins 5.9.

Nice van.
