If it were me I would pull the head and the oil pan off to get a look the condition of the internals. Probably replace anything corroded up from sitting while I was at it.

One of the biggest problems with these RV's is the engine is so confined and just doesn't get cooled properly. I think the best solution to this would be turning the power down substantially(425 hp) and demandate it to keep heat at a minimum, ISX's do NOT like to get hot.

Also don't let it sit for extended periods of time without getting it up to operating temp for an hour or 2 to keep things lubed and to boil the condensation out of the oil. That's my 2 cents worth.
