They were never imported en-masse here dude. Only ones that would be here would have been bought in privately.

from my experience summits freight aint the cheapest, but they get here pdq, and their service has been impeccable.

I wonder how many 5.9 ZJ's ever made it here

Nah its sitting in the shed. The Landy's in a shed in the far north, still in the process of finishing the front off, and the VX is sitting in the rain glaring at the ZJ.... waiting .....

If you are after a genuine Mopar part, try www.moparonlineparts.com They do ship overseas and are very reasonable to deal with. I have just got parts from the recently, freight was better than Quadratec and SummitRacing, and they are genuine parts.
