Question 4bt availability question, Phoenix guys

Hi, I am a new to posting/paying member that lives in the Phoenix area. I have been searching for cummins 4bt's for over a year and it seems like the supply is starting to diminish as the prices keep climbing. I finally found some sources that seem to be worth making a trip for and I am picking up 2 complete cpl 858 engines th400 transmissions for myself and my mom from across the country

My question is, and if I am doing something wrong here, please correct me since I am new, if I were able to purchase any good extra engine/tranny combos or just engines, is there anyone in the Phoenix area that would be interested in them? I am leaving thursday to make a 2300mile return trip and since I have the room available for up to 3 more (but can only be sure of 1 more available until I get there) I would like to help anyone else out that wants one as bad as I do. I would only ask for enough money beyond my cost to help cover the travel expenses since I have learned so much from reading your guy's combined wealth of knowledge for several years now even though I don't post.

I own and really like the white and red 92 w250 custom crewcab that belonged to another member on here who lives not too far away from me, but I will not ask him to vouch for me unless he so chooses. The total cost would be somewhere around $3000 due to the distance and 9-12MPG I will be facing. Again, I am on a limited time frame here as this came about unexpectedly, so if I have done something wrong here, I do not want to, so please let me know. If no one is interested that is fine too, I am just trying to find out and help out as this is the only trip I will have taken this year due to work constraints and I missed out back in May when they were almost $800 cheaper!

Tim 928-600-1161 is my cell, I used to live in Flagstaff in case you are wondering about the area code.
