Cool, only $150,000 !!
:D

has anyone priced out a turnkey bbf cobra.. same ballpark.

I'm thinking about a lot of things I could get for $150K......a Batmobile probably wouldn't be one of them.

Pretty sure that the original Batmobile was a Lincoln, so maybe it should be a supercharged FE 514?

nah, it needs a MEL motor, can you stroke a 462?

Sure, go old school. Weld up the throws and offset grind them.

from what I found, the 462 is dimensionally very close to a 385 family 460. With a 2.6 inch rod bearing and 6.6" rod, you could likely offset grind to 2.2 BBC pin diameter, use a 6.7 or 6.8 BBC rod. Probably could use 460 stroker pistons... very close on bore and spacing. A 501 or 514 doesn't seem out of the question, bore spacing was similar too.. the MEL forums stuff implied a 4.5 bore was possible (+.120 ? WTF!)

(thinking out loud)

Negative. They, like a Chevrolet 409, are an angle deck block and use bizarro pistons. There is no combustion chamber in the head.
