Dropping a larger engine into Hino FB?

Anybody know of this ever done? I would like to pickup a cheaper Hino FB with the jo5c 168 hp engine and swap in the gutsier hino jo5e with 200 + hp and have a highway capable truck. Any experience appreciated.

I believe the J05C is a 5.3L with all mechanical injection. The J05E is a 5.1L with common rail and all the modern emmisons parts, including the DPF, that go with them. I'm looking at the J engine family right now with similar questions for swapping. The C may or may not be able to reliably have the wick turned up in order to match the performance of the D.
