darton makes a 4.2 sleeve, and you can get your hands on a 4.125 crank. I think that comes out to be around a 457.

There's a 500ci LS2 out there, ERL used custom sleeves and deck spacers to accept a 4.205" bore and 4.500" stroke. I don't know how much different an LS1 is, but budget permitting, 500ci could be possible.
