At best it would have half the torque of a modern diesel so no, not many would jump ship for one.
From what I have heard the 7.3 is being designed for torque and efficiency so I expect at least as much torque per liter as the 5.0. Just getting the same amount would give it 580lbf. That is about 70% as much torque. Plus, what would be the purpose of building a new engine for the Superduty and medium duty trucks that doesn't compete with the performance of the diesel? At least, for a significant portion of the customers.
