This doesn't answer the question, but I think that you should go for quality, not quantity, when it comes to B&Ms.

Think about the 3 awesome B&M's at the Busch parks. Some of the best.

Alpengeist, Apollo's Chariot, Griffon
Kumba, Montu, Shikra

And that would be Raging Bull and Iron Wolf... at least for me :) I haven't been on Chang, though.

Yeah Batman is hands down the best ride there.

^Why does everyone like that ride so much? The only part I like is the zero g roll.

Because every part of the ride is intense, especially the helix after the second loop.

Find me another coaster that makes you physically dizzy and lightheaded. MAYBE one of the three Giovanola coasters?

Let me get this straight, by "Batman" are we talking about the B&M invert clone? With the loop followed by a zero g and then another loop, etc...? Only, having ridden two of these, it is my opinion that the rest of the coasters at that park must be shi'ite!

That is true, most of the rides there suck, but I happen to enjoy Batman quite a bit. It was pretty good in the last row.

I had fun on all their rides. But then again, I'm not the most negative person in the world like a certain other here just might be lol. Viper was lackluster, American Eagle was only fun during the first couple hills, but I really enjoyed all of the larger rides. Deja Vu was great, especially in the back rows...Raging Bull has one of the best first drops in the world and some good airtime here and there added to mostly fun turns...Iron Wolf has some crazy fast transitions and isn't too predictable, which makes the couple pops of airtime even better...V2 was nothing *too* special but fun, especially with a short line...and Superman's ok. I put Batman at about average for the park, but then again I don't think much of Batman clones...they're a great ride to have in your park because of the good quality and small footprint/relatively low price, but the ride itself is a bit overly intense for me, and never really picks up a lot of speed, plus is over pretty quick. Fun yes, excellent no.

Well technically the Batman at SFGAM is not a clone. It is the original copy. It was built specifically for that footprint.
