There's a company in Iceland selling 5.41's for their arctic trucks. I can't remember the right link but Google should find it.

The 5.14's should be out of the 4-Cyl. MQ/MK built in Spain until 1998.

Are they really released in OZ with 4.3s (utes that is)? Because i have yet to actually see one come with anything but 4.1s. I know the owners manual lists cab-chas as coming with 4.3 but haven't seen one yet!
(I own one as well, standard with 4.1s) :cry: :?

we have one at work with 4.3's. it is a very late model GQ, i think it is actually a 99.. one of the last ones anyway..
would go better with 4.1's as it has a turbo on it..
