I will keep an out out since I too am looking. I will let you know if I find a yard anywhere near with any. If you find a yard with a few id go grab a couple with ya as long as its a one day trip. Howbill has a bunch of the 5.3’s if you are at all interested. I am personally going to hold out for a LQ4-9 I think. ---
