Using NFS for RAC is the same as NFS for single instance, just the usual routine for enabling the Direct NFS driver. But I really wouldn't advise it.
If your system administrators want to use NFS, you can still use ASM. Create a set of files on the NFS device, and present them to ASM as the ASM discs. You won't get all the advantages of ASM because the underlying geometry of the discs will be hidden from ASM by the NFS layer, but this should still be much better performing than not using ASM at all.
