 Hmmm, I do not know how difficult it is to now get one's hands on a really nice, unmolested 428 block with the crank saddle webbing, suitable for boring out a bit.  Eight years ago, it took my builder about six to eight weeks, IIRC, to find something that made us happy.  Brent would know better than I on how hard it is now.  Maybe you really can't do it anymore except at a cost prohibitive price.  And maybe it's just not worth the builder's time to screw with the search anymore -- that's a real possibility.
