I think it's just cheaper to manufacture and maintain, considering how complex diesel engines and emissions equipment have to be now (even back then), Chevrolet small block V8s are ultra reliable due to their sturdiness, simplicity and just a cost-effective option for a company like the one i worked for with over 5000 vans in its fleet. The fuel costs wouldn't outweigh the maintenance and repair costs of an engine like the Cummins 4BT would create.
