So my vote is for a blown 6.0...

cubes + ion are always a winner.
I doubt you'll see a gas milage difference between all the engines for displacement. the LQ9, 4.8 and 5.3 all get similar gas milage. so much power is needed to move these trucks that the frictional/pumping losses become negligable.
compression will help though.

I voted for the 6.0. If you could find a great deal on one, I would go that route before dropping between the rails. I would do the same, but I've got someone putting a lot of work into a 5.3, and it was a great deal.
