    image sizes are not per se limited because you can combine multiple shots into extremely large images. however i don't think that there are stock photography sites dedicated to that kind of stuff because the use case is so rare.

    you could go to http://gigapan.com/ , browse their reference galleries/users and if you find a shot that suits your needs contact the photogs if the shot is nearly hi-res enough for your needs (doubtful) and what that shot would cost you.

    another thing, 84"x485" output is completely crazy. it sounds like someone doesn't understand a number of technical limitations. if the client insists on going that route he will have to pony up a world record budget that fits the bill, not only for production of the image asset, also handling them.

    good luck.
