On Class A it looks to me like Thor may have left the steel framing (floor) around the engine the same because the doghouse appears secured at same locations. Just a guess on my part so that they could manufacture on F-53 chassis with V10, and then when 2021 chassis with V8 arrived, they could keep going without much of a changeover.
For cutaway chassis Ford announced a doghouse revision to start next year (if I recall date correctly).
