I have never heard of a chip problem at altitude. Any vehicle sold would need to be able to be driven anywhere, the manufacturer would have no control over where it went.
Fuel injection would be self adjusting. The systems goal is to keep the fuel mixture at optimum efficiency regardless of altitude. Problem is, there just isn't as much oxygen to mix with the fuel, so the fuel cuts back, less charge to burn. Combine that with gravity and you get the double whammy!
I've heard carbs need to be jetted leaner for altitude, but never did it, never lived there. I have found them easier to flood when cold if the auto choke was too tight. Seemed to do better with little to no choke.
I've driven some of those Ford vans with the 351. We used to have one at church. It was terribly under powered, got bad mileage. Checked everything, could never get it to run as well as I thought it should. Seemed to be geared too tall.
All I can say about choosing a motor home, drive it first, or read the reviews. If you plan on doing a lot of mountain driving a turbo diesel might be the answer.

Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
