Custom pistons based on SBC forgings may be possible, but I guarantee you that you'll never find an SBC rod that will even come close to the length of the Packard rod, then you have rod bearing width to deal with. The closest rod I found length wise to Packard was 460 Ford, and even then, the bearing width wasn't close.

Short of custom aluminum rods and custom forged pistons, you're pretty much stuck with stock.
