Source for HD Cummins engine/trans or trucks? For London Bus swap

I'm in the planning phase of a 5.9 swap into an old double decker london bus. I need a good source for engine and Allison transmission combos, frame cuts, or complete/wrecked trucks. I will be needing all the components to swap to the bus, possible including axles and brakes. I have found some decent options through LKQ and a few others on line, but I am hoping someone on here has a good source. Bonus points if they are located in the northwest.

Ya that’s on the top of my list. But unfortunately around here there isn’t much supply and a lot of demand. Popular hippy conversion motor home.
