You might check out this thread. They are speaking of forged with any compression height. It might be able to solve your issue for less than a G.

Pistons will not solve my problem, only let me modify a set of BBC rods to fit if I wanted to go that route. I could run BBC 0.990 pins and adjust the compression height to work with 6.385in rods. At this point in the game I don't think I'm going to go that way, probably just buy 6.300in SBC rods and then carefully clearance the piston and the rod to make them work together.

Turns out they have 0.065in offset to them and there are only 6. This leaves me with only 0.035 off the bore centerline and fit between the pin boses. I also managed to get very, very good quality UK made rods for way less than even the cheapest chinesium rods.
